Abu Othaina (Arabic: أبو أذينة), popularly known as Shabjdeed, (عدي عباس/شب جديد) is a Palestinian rapper from Kafr 'Aqab.
[1][2] Shabjdeed's lyrics are mainly inspired by the daily life of a Palestinian in the West Bank, especially of his generation, growing up after, and not during, the Nakba, the Naksa, as well as the First and Second Intifada.
[1][6][7] His use of the Arabic language is characterized as playful, using alliteration and rhyming to create a unique style.
[1] Along with Al-Nather (الناظر) and Ahmad Zaghmouri (Shabmouri), he is a part of BLTNM, pronounced "blatinum", in reference to Platinum Records in Dubai and the fact that the P phoneme is not distinguished from the B phoneme in Arabic they are usually both represented by the Arabic: ب character.
[10] The critic Ma'an Abu Taleb named Shabjdeed and Al Nather's 2019 track "Mtaktak" for a list of the "greatest hip-hop songs of all time" published by the BBC.
