Throughout her career, NYC-based Egyptian rapper Felukah has been developing her unique style of bilingual lyricism, writing in both English and colloquial Arabic interchangeably.
The rapper’s identifiable style has made her an iconic figure in the Egyptian rap community, and on this episode of WORD, she unpacks the wordplay behind her 2022 release ‘Fruitseller’.
