Thawra, Ebaa Monther & Noise Diva Call Out Media Bias on ‘3antar’

Syrian trailblazing rappers Thawra and Ebaa Monther join forces on a collaborative single, titled ‘3antar’, a subversive socio-political observation of the media echo chamber, specifically criticising its handling of the war in Syria.

The track’s production is helmed by Amsterdam-based Syrian DJ and sound designer Noise Diva, who crafts a dark, hypnotic blend of trap and raw noise textures bubbling with tension and low intensity, subtly accented by Middle Eastern percussion here and there.

On the track, Thawra and Ebaa fire back against censorship, exchanging sharp satirical verses packed with double entendres, through which both rappers paint a vivid imagery of an arrogant, passive male figure called ‘3antar’, deliberately choosing to ignore the ugly reality of systemic destruction and ethnic cleansing.
