NIZAR ABS UNRELEASED - Kelo Atel (2009-2010)

This is a piece of our hidden treasures that will start to be revealed. Untitled we gave it its title here on youtube but people who heard it or heard about it know it by its generic name: “d*rak try 1” or “djejet clean”. It started appearing in 2009 on phones (back when Bluetooth was the main method of data transfer) and with a story which we will tell. We don’t know when exactly or where it was recorded or even who the beat composer is. The story goes something like this (according to the people who sent it to us and confirmed by many others): when Nizar was 16 or 17 years old, he and his “friends” had problems with the local law enforcement because the police are brought from a different city and this made a cultural clash with the locals. After many fights that resulted in big lawsuits between the locals and the law enforcement, the police (allegedly) illegally arrested one of the big Jbeily guys G.A, immediately his brother R.A (who is also one of the strongest guys in the area) went after him into the station and a huge fight broke between the 2 brothers and tens of the police officers. The track was a celebratory song after the big event and it was not supposed to be released but everyone from this old group had it and so did we. Since more than 15 years have passed and those problems were resolved years ago, we decided to share it and archive it for the new generations. ABS who was 16 or 17 at the time displayed an amazing level especially if you consider the time when it was created. What makes it this great is not the mediocre mixing nor the amazing punchlines and flows, what makes it great is how real it is which you can hear in his tone. We hope none of you have heard it before and we hope that it doesn’t affect Nizar’s work or life, we are responsible for the releases on our channel (if the track was not released by its original owner). Tell us what you think and stay tuned for more amazing unreleased tracks by your favorite artists! We aim to archive all the Lebanese Rap songs that contributed in the building of our local scene. Enjoy and let us know in the comments what songs you would want us to upload next.
