The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.
We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

I'm listening to a selection of indigenous artists from the Arctic. Here are some of the albums I've been listening to:
Sofia Jannik - "ORDA - This is my land" and "lávvu"
Uyarakq -" whale dick" and "survival guide to the high north "
Kitok - "paradise Jokkmokk"
Riit - "ataataga"
Aasiva - "niriunniq"
Katarina barruk - "ruhttuo"
Maxida märak - "utopi"
oh wow! amazing!
I think so. I like things like joik and throat singing mixed with modern music. Also check out Tanya Tagaq. She's as mad as a barrel full of rabid monkeys, but that's kinda what I'm into.
I like Tanya Tagaq's album Tongues. Anything else by her or the artists you mentioned above that you'd specifically recommend?
It totally depends on what you are into. If you're interested in sami musik, the Norwegian state run broadcasting corporation (NRK) had a Sami radio station.

I'm not sure if it works outside of Norway.
All of the above mentioned have their discographies on Spotify, so it's just a question of falling down the rabbit hole. Although kitok has a song which isn't available on Spotify, which everyone should listen to.
