Ramallah Underground, based in Ramallah, Palestine, is a musical collective born in 2002,[1] [2] from the desire to give voice to a generation of Palestinians and Arabs, in a situation of great economic, artistic, and political difficulty.
[3] The collective was founded by artists Stormtrap (later known as Asifeh) and Boikutt (later known as Muqata'a), later joined by Aswatt, who aim to rejuvenate Arabic culture by creating "music that Arabic youth can relate to," in the words of Boikutt.
[8] As producers and as MCs, the collective has collaborated with numerous artists across the globe, most recently Slovo, Boikutt appears on the track "Nakba" from their new album Todo Cambia.
[9] They have performed live in Ramallah, Bethlehem, Vienna, Melbourne (at the Melbourne International Arts Festival[10]), Liverpool,[11] Cairo, Lausanne, Amsterdam (as part of "Rap4Justice" in the Melkweg[12]), and Washington, D.C., and recently incorporated a visual set by Palestinian visual artist Ruanne Abou-Rahme in their live performances.
[13] Ramallah Underground does not have an official release yet and mostly uses the internet as a way of circulating their music.
