Shabjdeed & Al Nather Reclaim the Crown on New Track ‘MLKRAP’
BLTNM heavyweights Shabjdeed and Al Nather reunite for ‘MLKRAP,’ a brutal drill track with a glitched-out visual twist.
Palestinian rapper Shabjdeed just dropped a sonic uppercut. Titled ‘MLKRAP’, and produced by longtime collaborator Al Nather, the track marks a brash, unfiltered return to BLTNM’s signature sound: raw, politically defiant, and uncompromising in energy. Released via BLTNM Records, the track came with a video game-inspired visual designed by Legbone, known for his dystopian digital aesthetic.
Backed by Al Nather’s drill beat, Shabjdeed delivers a fiery monologue that blends street poetry, biting social commentary, and a kind of dark humour. “ملك لفلو انا ملك الراب” (“My flow is royal, I’m the king of rap”), Shabjdeed growls, delivering the line like a threat and a prophecy. The track moves between personal stakes and national rage, with bars that refuse to be softened.
In the music video, Legbone’s 3D animation plunges Shabjdeed into a glitchy, game-like world. With digital avatars, collapsing architecture, and surreal symbolism, the video echoes the track’s themes of resistance through chaos.
