Hip Hop has saved many a person, especially from a life of crime. When it comes to unrest in the Middle East, the culture may have saved another person from a life of violence.
MC Gaza recently spoke to Global Post about how Hip Hop saved his life and why he chose to become a rapper instead of participating in jihadism. He also details how he got into the culture, citing Eminem as a big inspiration.
“At first I started doing it as a kind of challenge, and then I found I couldn’t stop,” he told the website. “People here think that rap is haram [un-Islamic]… They think that we are acting like the West.”
He also states how he has used Hip Hop for good, attempting to show the perils of his home country.
“Rap talks about anything you see that is wrong and explains why that is wrong,” he explained, “I want to break the whole country that broke me.”
Gaza recently released a song/video called “My Extraordinary Homeland,” which details the struggle and hypocrisy of warfare in Israel. View it below:

i didnt choose the hiphop over the jihadism , i just choose it one of our ways to get the freedom for our country which it need any art to stand with our cause , i hope u reread the interview with Global post to get the right
much respect from Palestine .
Jihadism does not equal violence.
Hip Hop didn’t save him from a life of “violence”…. they live IN VIOLENCE because of Israel, the occupier. Isreal is a military occupieng force that put 2 Million people in a open concentration camp called Gaza. They have an embargo on them, the food comes through in calories… not bundles.
Israel terrorizes them whenever they want..
