Rap of The Week | May 26 - June 01

This time on SceneNoise’s ‘Rap of The Week’, we bring you picks from some of the region’s leading bar-droppers. We were treated to the return of iconic Palestinian rapper Shabjdeed with ‘Kalbi’, while Saudi Arabian rapper Moayad released his album ‘Batn El Shaer’, where he experiments with using musical ideas that are quintessentially Saudi and embeds them into his contemporary sound.

Back in Egypt, rappers Marwan Moussa, Afroto, and the rest of the Ra2smal roster wrapped up their individual EPs, ending their May release schedule ‘Shahr Mal’ on a high note.
