Hip-hop artists Flewnt and Inkabee, a father-and-son double act, help young people find their voice

Josh Eggington is a proud Noongar Wongi man. Not only is the father of five a well-known Perth hip-hop artist named Flewnt, he also mentors troubled young people at some of Western Australia's youth detention centres. "I can relate to a lot of these young people that we see in these detention centres, the similar upbringings that we all kind of get dealt," he said. The former WA NAIDOC Music Award winner said empowering and engaging youth through hip hop, as a form of "music therapy", was life changing. "When I see young people using hip hop in the way that it's intended … I can't help but be my happiest."
