The Palestinian artists taking over the music scene

The 18-year-old Chilean-Palestinian singer recently rose to prominence with her debut EP “Ana Lahal.” She embraces her Palestinian roots by incorporating Arabic into her music. 

Based in Ramallah, the Palestinian record label (pronounced Blatinum) is made up of an array of rappers and producers, such as Shabjdeed, Al Nather and Shabmouri, who are all spearheading the underground rap scene in the Middle East.

Based in Los Angeles, the identical twins are a well-known DJ duo who are consistently called on to spin at fashion events and music festivals, including the Off White x Jimmy Choo launch party, Coachella and Saudi Arabia’s inaugural MDL Beast festival.

The Ramallah-based DJ and electronic music producer made a name for herself internationally and has played all over the world, including in Paris, Germany and Italy.  

The Palestinian-born Canadian rapper and producer, who goes by the stage name Belly, short for rebellious, is also responsible for co-writing a number of songs for the likes of The Weeknd and Beyonce.

The London-based four piece, all of whom are of Palestinian origin, have received critical acclaim for their songs and high-energy, wildly-celebratory live shows.
