The Fight Within is the second studio album by musical artist iskwē.[1] It was released independently on November 3, 2017[2]
In an interview with the CBC's Andrea Gin, iskwé stated her three key influences were protecting the planet, community, and future generations.[1] Jim Di Gioia found the album introspective and personal. He particularly cited “Will I See” as a dialogue between the singer and the multitude of missing and murdered indigenous women in Canada.Di Gioia mentions how iskwé says the song came to her immediately following a solidarity walk in Winnipeg that traveled the distance from where Tina Fontaine’s body was discovered to the monument for missing and murdered women in Winnipeg.[3] Another review points to her Irish and Cree/Dené/Métis roots as contributing to her sound.[4] Producers on the independently released album include The Darcys on Nobody Knows, Hayden Wolf on Soldier and Will I See; and Keolya on Sometimes and The Storm.[4]
The Fight Within was nominated for a Juno Award for Indigenous Album of the Year.[5]
