Arabic Hip Hop
Arabic hip hop is a vibrant and eclectic genre that fuses traditional Middle Eastern rhythms and instrumentation with modern hip hop beats and lyrical themes. Emerging in the late 1990s in the Maghreb region, it gained popularity in the 2000s with the rise of artists who drew on Arabic musical heritage, French and American hip hop, and local dialects to craft a unique sound. Characterized by driving percussion, oud and qraqeb instrumentation, and rapid-fire vocal deliveries, Arabic hip hop often incorporates socially conscious lyrics that address regional politics, identity, and cultural heritage. With its blend of traditional and modern elements, Arabic hip hop sets itself apart from other global hip hop styles, while its energy and authenticity have made it a staple of urban music scenes in the Arab world and beyond.
