Mea culpa to the OG Arab League
In my recent post at ForeignPolicy.com, “The Arab League of Hip Hop”, I made a critical and glaring omission, which I wish to correct here. One simply cannot speak of the “Arab League of Hip Hop” without mentioning the founders of the original Arab League, the Arabian Knightz, who have brought together Cairo’s top talent, including MC Amin, Wighit Nazar, and The PharoZ, as well as Saudi superstar Qusai, Palestinian-American producer FredWreck, and the one and only Shadia Mansour, not to mention affiliations with DAM, Don Bigg, The Narcicyst, Eslam Jawaad, and other Arab rappers across the world. My apologies to Rush and the homies in Cairo for not payin homage. As they say f’el Maghreb, 7ashouma 3lia! And I can’t believe I still ain’t posted this banger:
