For Snotty Nose Rez Kids, BBE or Big Braid Energy, is the representation of mind, body and spirit interwoven. Braided hair gives them strength and reminds them of their growth. The track taps into the power of Indigenous people and is an anthem for Indigenous people to be proud of their long braids. 

Hailing from the Haisla Nation in British Columbia, Canada, Snotty Nose Rez Kids tore into the music scene in 2016 with unmistakable talent and an unforgettable name. Showing off their lyrical prowess and natural storytelling ability, Yung Trybez and Young D jumpstarted the band with two back-to-back albums: ‘The Average Savage’ (2017) and ‘Snotty Nose Rez Kids’ (2018). Their follow up album, 2019’s ‘Trapline’, launched their career with hit “Boujee Natives,” and multiple awards including their first JUNO Award nomination. 

Their 2022 project, ‘I’M GOOD, HBU?’ elevated their career to new heights, and saw them receive their fourth Polaris Prize Shortlist, a win for top music video of the year at the Prism Prize Awards for their Beatles-inspired, “Damn Right,” and landed them four Western Canadian Music Award nominations, bringing their tally to 14 nominations and 10 wins so far.
