25Jan by Ramy Essam. Ramy Essam, probably the most notable activist musical voice of the Egyptian revolution and the musician responsible for the now eternally famous “Irhal” protest song, has a new album out! And the best part? He has Manshorat available for free download on his website. Above is his video for one of the 23 songs, “25Jan.” Note: The song starts almost a minute in.
I wrote about Essam and other revolutionary musicians like him across North Africa and the Middle East for Guernica last week.
