In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I started writing music as a 13-year-old, I was convinced that to be a performer he needed good vocals, this all changed when I discovered Rap music.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Emsallam, الخطوة الاخيرة The last step. Is my first album produced in its entirety by TheArchiducer, it was released in the summer of 2016. This album is considered the first full Trap hip-hop album from the Levant region.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Amman Mish Paris” In this demo song, I discuss my complicated love story with my hometown Amman. I say in the song that Amman is better than Paris. But still, it's so toxic toward its people.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? One of the most memorable moments of my career was when I visited my ancestral village in occupied Palestine. I gambled my career to visit my land and was attacked for it. The defaming campaign was tough. but I was determined to connect with my past.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I always wanted to produce an album that reflects my family's heritage. My sister collected and archived so many folk songs from the grandmas in our tribe, and I'm now working on reproducing them as an album.
