What Are You Listening To?

[ghost1986]

Sure. Ya Elmidan by Cairokee, Habbeytak Bessayf by Fairuz, Sout El Horya by Cairokee, Ana Moush Kafer by Ziad Rahbani, Kazeboon by Ahmed Rock and Irhal by Ramy Essam.  The last two songs aren't on iTunes. I can see why Kazeboon isn't because Ahmed Rock doesn't have anything on there, but Irhal not being on there makes no sense because Essam's actually kinda famous and they have plenty of his other revolution songs on iTunes, but Irhal is probably his most famous due to him performing it in Tahrir Square during the 2011 Egyptian Revolution.

Not at all. I knew about him but never gave him a chance until I recently stumbled on two of his tracks on Complex ("Raise Your Weapons" and "A-Wax"). I saw his tape was coming out soon and decided I'd download it. Looking to check out his past material at some point.
