I always felt some sort of way when I listened to this song. As though it struck me directly in my heart and spoke to the deepest darkest parts of my soul. Someone said on Youtube, that this song is based on a folk song of the hundreds of thousands of peasants enslaved and exploited, who were forced to dig the suez canal. According to some sources, over a hundred thousand Egyptians perished digging the canal.

I don't understand anything said in this song. but I feel all of them. my heart just went on a journey

He is currently the only trumpet player in the world to play Arabic music with the trumpet in fourth tones, using a technique his father invented in the 1960s. Ibrahim is also the winner of some of the greatest classical trumpet competitions in the world.

Some time ago I worked for a Berlin based NGO called MICT while running Jakarta Records. During this time I helped organize a recording session in Tunisia with 9 female singers and musicians from Tunisia, Libya & Egypt together with Oddisee and Olof Dreijer of The Knife. "Nouh Al Hamam" by egyptian singer Maryam Saleh is the first leak of the project. You can pre-order the vinyl here. Below you can find the infos for this project....

A little less then three years ago the political situation in many countries of the Arab world changed dramatically. Uprisings started in rural areas of Tunisia and from there spread to various countries in the region. Millions gathered in the streets united by their demand for more democracy, rights and participation in the political process. In most cases the reaction of the governing dictators were relentless and severe towards every form of protests. Violence in the streets of Cairo, Tunis and Bengasi escalated and resulted in the overthrow of the governments in Tunisia, Egypt and Lybia.
A year later a group of female singers and musicians from Tunisia (Nawel Ben Kraiem, Badiaa Bouhrizi, Medusa, Houwaida), Libya (Nada) and Egypt (Donia Massoud, Maryam Saleh, Youssra El Hawary) met in Mohsen Matri Studio in Tunis to sing- against corruption, despotism, patronization and narrow-mindedness. The song with Syrian artist Rasha Rizk was recorded some months later in her political asylum in Cairo. Sudanese/American producer Oddisee and Olof Dreijer of the Swedish pop duo The Knife joined the session, participating in the creation of the musical backdrop as well as the often multi-instrumentalist female singers. For the vinyl edition producers such as Brenk, Blackjoy and Blundetto contributed remix versions of the project.

At the time and still today especially musicians and especially women were and are trapped in a spiral of repression, discrimination and violence. "Sawtuha" (Arabic for "her voice"), the album that is the product of the 2-week session, is a vital encouraging testament of rebellion against the repression of democratic rights, gender inequality, and lack of inclusion. The music is an organic mixture of traditional Arabic music, regional influences and various forms of contemporary Western musical genres. A mixture that may sound contradicting at first but makes total sense once you listen to the music.

The studio session was organized by the Berlin based NGO MICT (Media In Cooperation And Transition) and was funded by the German Federal Foreign Office.

Rae Sremmurd - "No Type" [Prod. By Mike WiLL Made-It & Swae Lee of Rae Sremmurd]

From the album 'eyeamsound', available worldwide 02.06.15

أنا بدون من أنت تكون
أنا بدون لست العدو

فاقدون نفسهم 
غارقون في نقودهم
كثيرون يقولون لي عوم
و كيف أعوم و أنا المظلوم
و من سجون عيونهم 
أنا منكم أنا فيكم
و احذروا لا تسمعوا
غافلون يوسوسوا
ناظروا في ضعفهم
من عموق قلوبكم
و قولوا

أنا بدون من أنت تكون
أنا بدون لست العدو
أنا بدون من أنت تكون
أنا بدون لست العدو

آن الأوان يالعاقلون
أن تجلبوا حلول
على الذين ينكرون
إني كنت إنسان
عازليني من تاريخكم
غارقيني في سواد نفطكم 
فأرا أنا في الظل
أحيا على التسمم 
و ما ذقتم التسمم 
هالفساد يبغى تهدم
فقولوا معي لا تخجلوا
أنا بدون لست منكم

أنا بدون من أنت تكون
أنا بدون لست العدو
أنا بدون من أنت تكون
أنا بدون لست العدو

واللي يقول إني العدو
أنا أقول إني بدون
أنا أقول إني بدون
أنا بدون لست العدو
