DAM w/ Rebel Diaz

  • 855969793_l_large

Count your lucky stars that the preeminent Palestinian hip-hop group DAM managed to get a visa to tour the US, even with an album titled Min Irhabi (Who's the Terrorist?). The three players from Lod (a mixed Jewish and Arab ghetto, 20 kilometers from Jerusalem) draw as much from the American greats as from French rap and traditional Arabic music to form their eclectic style. The anti-drug, pro-women's-rights, politically vocal group has become a global phenomenon, appearing on compilations alongside Manu Chao, Zebda, and other activist world-music icons. Chicago-based performance group/hip-hop trio Rebel Diaz open.
