Egyptian-Palestinian rapper Ma-Beyn, Lebanese rapper Sabine Salamé, and Palestinian producer SHTLF released their collaborative album 'N7S' last February. In this groundbreaking project, the trio pushed the boundaries of Arabic hip-hop. SHTLF's unconventional production, which skillfully integrates Drum n Bass elements into hip-hop textures, complements Ma-Beyn and Sabine's thoughtful lyricism and politically charged themes.
