-RetweetHip-Hop, Islamofascist Style

Wed, Jun 9, 2004 at 11:47:46 am PDT

The mullahs of Iran have allowed a “hip-hop” album to be released—but the message is nothing like Baby Got Back: Mullahs give their blessing to leader of the Teheran posse.

He is clean-shaven and goes about his business wearing a suit and tie with his cut-back collar shirt. Hardly a hip-hop image for Iran’s first official rap artist. But Shahkar Binesh-Pagoh has brought the once underground genre of rap music into the open for Iranian teenagers. Sales of his new album Eskenas, literally banknote, are rocketing.

“I started writing the album four years ago but knew that we would encounter problems releasing it,” said the 32-year-old singer. “Up to 20 lyrical excerpts were deleted and we had no choice [but to] delete some songs.”

The album was finally approved by the ministry of Islamic guidance and culture, which vets all forms of art in the theocratic state.

Many of the songs question the habit of girls following western fashions.

The lyrics mock the girls in Teheran who stroll through the capital with designer headscarves and make-up.

“More important than bread at night is your lipstick and lipliner,” raps Binesh Pagoh about a conceited girl.

“There’s a lot of religious people here, cover your legs with that skirt.”

I don’t think Sir Mix-A-Lot would be down with this.

So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (Hell yeah!)
Tell ‘em to shake it! (Shake it!) Shake it! (Shake it!)
Shake that healthy butt!
Baby got back!

You know what's interesting? I worked for an Egyptian and the first thing he did when he got here was buy porn, and date strippers. It was weird. Personally, I could care less, but I think it's interesting how quickly they chase down some things of America, and how hypocritical they are on others. And his friends were really into strippers. The whole thing was weird. I don't work for him any more, it was all just too much.

A few weeks ago, I mailed Dr. Dre's "The Chronic" and some other CDs (Metallica seems to be popular there) to Tehran. LOL! Probably on the Mullahs' acceptable list.

What do you mean Ms. Andi? Are you telling me that the Mullahs don't like Metallica?

I know a Pakistani guy who is the same way. Drinks alcohol, dates strippers, goes to Friday prayers, loathes Jews. Nice enough guy (apart from the anti-semitism), it's just that sometimes I feel like I'm hanging out with the 21th hijacker. There's a little hypocrisy in all our lives to be sure, but the contradictions with this guy are a teensy-weensy bit disturbing.

re: Metallica - they probably are a bunch of ex-pat Yankee fans out there who wanted to hear the sweet sounds of Mariano Rivera coming in to save the 9th inning and missed hearing Enter Sandman.

Either that or they get understand Leper Messiah and Master of Puppets to mean their leadership sucks and it's time for a change.

Islam is geared to equate legality w/ morality. If something is legal (or illegal but unpunished, or punished w/ weak severity relative to Saudi punishment, ie prostitution), Allah has willed it to be so, therefore it's ok. If something is illegal, Allah has willed it to be so, therefore it's wrong. It also results from the repression that exists in their own cultures, they come to America and splurge on all their lust.

I recently reread the Cairo Trilogy by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author Naguib Mafouz--same thing, but a century ago. The head of the family is a womanizing hypocrite. Guess that's why the Muslim Brotherhood attacked the author, who no longer writes.

Isn't Sir Mix-a-lot one of the reasons "why they hate us"?

I mean, him and all the Jews running the media, our foreign policy and the world's banks, of course.

LOL It's funny, because they download this stuff too, but having CDs, etc from the US is like a status symbol. Plus to own anything the Mullahs hate (which is almost anything) also adds the taboo allure. If the Mullahs ever fall (or if we get rid of them), Metallica could easily do a show there in their largest stadium.

There's a little hypocrisy in all our lives to be sure, but the contradictions with this guy are a teensy-weensy bit disturbing.

That reminds me of this Muslim clique at my university. What makes them different from the rest of the Muslims is that they are heavily Westernized. They drink, the girls don't wear hijabs, both sexes are extremely sexualized and don't see anything wrong with it, yet they are still practicing Muslims and speak fluent Arabic. Plus they are the only Muslims from my school that I end up seeing at bars and clubs. But the one thing that is ingrained in them is their Jew-hatred. One time a prof of mine was talking about Jews in Palestine and one of these girls just screamed out "THEY DON'T BELONG THERE! IT'S NOT THEIR LAND!" Even the other Muslims in the class just looked at each other thinking "Wow...I can't believe she said that." But of course, nobody condemned it. Quelle suprise.

A friend of mine knows an anarchist Muslim who loathes the Arab regimes with a passion and makes no excuses for them, and my friend describes him as a progressive Muslim. However, even my friend admits he still has these crazy theories about Mossad and the IDF. It seems the West can totally change the cultural habits of Muslims and sometimes even secularize them, but one thing that is hard to erase is the Jew hatred that they are taught.

Dare I say conspiracy? Yes, i dare! "Sir Mix-a-lot" is actually an Ethiopian Jew working for Mossad. He is trying to subvert Muslim culture by promoting debauchery. After all, who can deny that the beneficiaries of the rap industry are the Zionists? They benefit while the Muslims suffer.

His date-palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his kaffiyeh already, mom's tabouli
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To strap bombs, but he keeps on forgettin
Where the kids are, the whole crowd goes so loud
He climbs on the bus, but the bomb don't go off
He's chokin, how everybody's jokin now
The clock's run out, time's up over, plow!
Snap back depravity, Oh there goes paradise
Oh, there goes camel, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy
No he won't have it, he knows his whole Whack city's splodeydopes
It don't matter, he's a dope
He knows that, but he'll croak
He's so packed that he knows
When he goes back to his Gaza strip home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again yo
This old rhapsody
He better go capture this infidel car and hope it don't pass him

[Hook:]
You better lose yourself in the bomb shreds, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go, oh
you got to to boom yourself in the music the moment
you better get a zionist or two

You only got one shot
do not miss your chance to blow up
cuz opportunity to be a martyr comes once in a lifetime

The a**hole's escaping, through this hole that it's gaping
This world is mine for the raping
Make me king, as we move toward a, new world order
A normal life is borin, but martyrdom's close to post mortem yo
It only grows harder, C4 explosive grows hotter
He blows it's all over these houris is all on him
Israeli outpost to coast shows, he's known west bank-trotter
Homely toads, God only knows
He's murders farther from home, he's no father
He goes home and barely strangles his own daughter
But hold your nose cuz here goes the Zumzum water
these houris don't want him no mo, he's car swarm product
They moved on to the next splodeydope who flows
He nosedove and killed nada
So the j-post opera is told it unfolds
I suppose it's old potna, but the beat goes on
you got to to boom yourself in the music the moment
you better get a zionist or two

You only got one shot
do not miss your chance to blow up
cuz opportunity to be a martyr comes once in a lifetime

No more games, I'ma change what you call outrage
Tear this Crusader roof off like 2 muslims caged
I was playin in the beginnin, the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off Abu Ghraib
But I kept killin and raped, writin the next faywa
Best believe somebody's payin the bill to Osama
All the pain inside amplified by the nails
They can't get by with 25G from Saddam
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cuz man, these Allahu aqbars don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no insurance, this is my life
And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder
Tryin to bleed and kill by my creed, plus go on hajj
Caught up between bein a slaughterer and a prima donna
Baby Osama Fatima's screamin on and
Too much for me to fatwa
Stay in one spot, another day of rapacity
Has gotten me to the point I'm like a snaill
I've got to formulate a plot to end up in smoke or shot
Success is killing an infidel, peace is not
Sharon, I hate you, but this peace has got to go
I cannot grow old in Jerusalem's calm
So here I go here's my bomb
Pastique fail me not this may be the only opportunity that I got

[Hook]
you got to to boom yourself in the music the moment
you better get a zionist or two

You only got one shot
do not miss your chance to blow up
cuz opportunity to be a martyr comes once in a lifetime

I read this blog a lot but have never posted a comment. But since I'm an Iranian, I wanted to let you guys know that in Iran the illegal and underground stuff is way more popular than the legal ones (and that is everything: music, films and of course drinks! hahaha!). There is a hardcore anti-mullah rapper who is highly popular, you can read the translation of his lyrics on his website : [Link: www.deev.org...]

I have many friends in Iran and i can assure that most of them hate Islam as a religion and the mullahs as a regime. The Iranian People, specially his youth, are the most pro-American and pro-Israel people in the Middle East, but maybe even in the world..

Don't believe in AFP,Reuters,Yahoo!News,etc..

The media paint the Iranian Freedom Lovers wrongly.

Many Iranians don't want us to call the mullahs as "iranians" saying that they are Tazi (Arabs)..

The Iranians are proud to be Persian and the new generation dislike islam and don't even give a damn of such a pro-regime singer.
They think that the Islamic Rev was nothing but a Second Arabo-Islamic Invasion .


Look at those websites for better understanding of the situation..

Seriously, though, I wonder if this straight up G keepin' it real shari'ah style from Iran can match the unmitigated hatred of Sheikh Terra and Soul Salah Crew in the video that has all the mujahideen talking, Dirty Kuffar. It's the dance hall hip-hop sensation that's sweeping the dar al-Islam!

sampling of the lyrics from Dirty Kuffar:

You see the National Front man him, him a dirty kuffar
The Ku Klux Klan dem a dirty kuffar
The BNP man dem a dirty kuffar
Ronald Reagan was a dirty kuffar
The minister Tony Blair, there my dirty Kuffar
The one Mister Bush, there my dirty Kuffar...
The National Front them a dirty kuffar
Throw them in the fire

Dirty Kuffar, wherever you are.
Driving your car, disobey Allah.
Run around the world like the grand puba
We're gonna be taking over like we took over the shah
From Qandahar to Ramallah we comin STAAA
Peace to Hamas and the Hizbollah

For those who don't know:

In regard to the opening clip in the Dirty Kuffar video, wherein the Iraqi on the ground is shot by Marines; a textbook case of lack of context being used in the service of dishonest propaganda. Before this happens, the Iraqi was shooting at the Marines. Hardly a civilian.

and chasing bribes and decadence, huh?
cuz a free loading bunch have taken
all their belongings in their pockets
free loaders are the clergies (on Friday prayers)
free loaders are like barrels (look at'em)
while these guys are in power
why would we need an enemy?
but silence is enough (enough)
this is a philosophical topic (listen up)
it's better to speak up your heart
than to silently die in fear

(Chorus)

Ladies and gentlemen, arms up (up)
All with one voice, all fists up (together)
Our country's political prisoners
all must be safely released
let us light up (come on)
a candle tonight
for people's freedom and
the day clergies are toppled (hope to god)
if you think about for a bit
you'll give [a mythical Persian tyrant] a pat on the back (good job)
since he'd only kill two people a day [per legend's account]
see how many they have killed during their time
I'm blood thirsty for these clergies (thirsty)
they deserve a dagger (they deserve it)
sooner or later, hanging from a pole
they're bound to their destiny (choking sound)
who can be blamed?
I'll tell u with a smirk (ha-ha)
if you compare me with them
even I the Deev [Persian monster] am an angel (angel)
superstitious beliefs must be given up (give it up)
in order to yank the roots of ignorance
so we can be freed
from the grasp of this evil
Arabphile traitors (foreign loving)
my country is burning at the shameless' hand
know that till the judgment day
people curse you everyday
but enough is enough, it's time for revenge
it's time to topple you with an uprising
it's time for your public execution
know that this is not a threat, it's just a message!

When I was a kid, back in the early 1960s, my parents took me to see Sammy Davis Jr at The London Palladium. The only thing I remember about it was how, between numbers, he squinted down at somebody in one of the front rows and said, You think you've got problems? Look at me. I'm a one eyed black Jew. Oy vey!"

Ms. Andi

A few weeks ago, I mailed Dr. Dre's "The Chronic" and some other CDs (Metallica seems to be popular there) to Tehran.


Hey, I want to mail some unsolicited American music to Iran.
