 When is a didjeridu not a yirdaki ?
Yothu Yindi is a cogent example of the multiple, interwoven and vital roles of popular music in shaping individual, group and national identity.
Yothu Yindi is predicated on a notion of self-representation, even though, if necessary, this may take the form of technologically and industrially mediated syncretic music and westernized rhetorical, lyrical and/or audio-visual styles.
Yothu Yindi has remained focused on what constitutes success to them and what roles their music can play in the pursuit of extra-musical objectives.

Yothu Yindi isn’t nearly as obscure as some of the artists/groups I’ve dredged up here.
Finally, compared to American protest music, their main message, in both sound and lyrics, is one of tradition, peace and cooperation, rather than "pay me what you owe me." This is particularly striking when you consider the studied extermination practiced by Australian whites in the 19th century.
Many Yothu Yindi lyrics are in Yolngu, but that makes little difference when you’re listening.

 Andrew Farriss - APrap
Explains Farriss, “On the album we did after Kick, Michael wanted to try and write lyrics that were a little bit more self-analytical and not so commercial… even a little bit more confronting for people.
Yothu Yindi’s last album, Garma, was again produced and co-written by Farriss, and his latest project is the production of Tania Kernaghan’s new album, Big Sky Country, on which he co-wrote with Tania, her sister Fiona Kernaghan and Colin Buchanan.
I found working both on Tania and the Yothu Yindi album, Garma, was fantastic, reigniting for me of the creative process.
