KASBAH ROCKERS with Bill Laswell „Kasbah Rockers“ Barbarity 028 Kasbah Rockers is the new project of Pat Jabbar and different guests from the Barraka label, having combined chilling Trip Hop beats, Rai’n’B, Dub and progressive Dance sounds with traditional Moroccan influences and instruments. Bill Laswell who is playing the bass on 11 tracks, grooves along with eclectic artists such as Youssef El Mejjad from Amira Saqati (Marrakech-Morocco, who co-composed and co-wrote on eight songs), Abdelaziz Lamari and Abdelkader Belkacem from Maghrebika (Oran & Skikda-Algeria) or Kadir & Erdem from the Swiss-Turkish Hip Hop crew Makale. Their distinctive musical identities, are all fully integrated in a dense and compact soundscape. For instance to the improvised recording sessions of the “bad girls” from B-Net Marrakech, or to the great and evocative voice of the young Turkish singer Oezlem Ylmaz. Another new artistic discovery are Hamza & Anass, the two brothers from the Marrakshi crew HS, rappin’ in French and Arabic about Moroccan street reality or moral and social issues. The lyrical content of most of the other songs is much committed to the daily examinations of young Muslims in the western world, or on the other hand, to the confrontation with “western values” in an Islamic world. Anti Iraq-war song “Falludjah Car” is sung in Turkish and Arabic, “Bledstyle” in Turkish only. But also more romantic lyrics as in “Shta” do aerate the whole “educative” concept and messages: I couldn’t stand all the suffering, but thanx to Allah I learned to be patient The thunder in the sky brought pleasant rain The rivers are full of water and the flowers are growing Death is asking Allah for mercy Don’t let the wolf be our friend I want to be at the top of the the palm tree and be taken by the wind And on the way I am looking for my love They have been taken my love with a white car And rain is falling and the flowers are growing I couldn’t stand all the suffering, but thanx to Allah I learned to be patient “Bledstyle” and “Shta” by the way, were chosen as a part of the soundtrack for the new Ridley Scott film “Body Of Lies” (feat. Russel Crowe & Leonardo DiCaprio). For booking, interviews and more infos, contact Barraka now !!!
