Biogarphy

Asfalt, an Egyptian hip-hop duo, consists of rappers Ibrahim Farouk and Mohamed Gad. Through their music, Asfalt takes on a variety of social, political, and cultural issues. The issues they discuss are centered around daily life and are inspired by what they see and experience in the streets. Asfalt hopes to connect with the Egyptian, Arab, and broader international audiences as their music opens up venues of discussion which can be understood both locally and cross-culturally.

While Asfalt discusses some serious issues, their contributions go far beyond social and political critique. Their music and concerts provide both an aural and visual experience for their audience through an intricate balance of instruments, beats, vocals, rap, poetry, beat-boxing, and dance.

Asfalt started in 2005 as one of the forerunners in the constantly expanding Egyptian underground hip-hop scene. Their contributions to the hip-hop scene are not limited to music production; they have also participated in dozens of live performances, television commercials, and have been featured on talk shows.
