MC Dahab Prophet of Doom On Egypt




"Get ready to get screwed" raps this young Egyptian rapper Mc Dahab.

I know that most are unhappy about the latest political moves in Egypt. Many see such moves are designed to undermine the Islamic candidates who have the best chances to win the presidential election. While, I am not fan of Islamic rule as seen by the few who have a holier than though mantra. I do not vote, and I want those who vote to make their choice.

Mc Dahab is watching all these things and he sees that everybody is piling on the candidates that he happened to like. Yes, we both see that there's a nasty games that is being orchestrated in the dark. I like the lyrics he comes up, for a young guy he is well versed in both history and current events. Islam, politics, Hosny Mubarak and Islamic rule.

Unlike many songs of Mc Dahab, this song can only be understood and enjoyed if you have been watching the latest development in Egypt, or if you are an Egyptian. This is a partisan song as some will see it. I do commend the rapper for writing this song, it should be a no brainer. Those who have murdered people and assisted or approved of the Mubarak regime murdering people, should not be allowed to run for president.

There's a poetry in this song and there's also rage as the rapper feels his dream and the dreams of many are about to fade away to make room for people who have come from the past brining with them all things we have hated about the past.
Mc Dahab = إلبس يا شعب
