Welcome to The Safe House Travel Diary, a travel and music podcast that explores hip hop in misunderstood places. My name is Soha. I go to the safe houses of hip hop artists for intimate conversations and try to get a sense of what life is like in their corner of the world. The idea for The Safe House comes from Kendrick Lamar's lyric about "venting in the safe house." Every season I travel to a new country and immerse myself in their hip hop scene. This is Season 1: "Three Nights in Beirut" and it takes place in my Motherland: Lebanon.
The idea for The Safe House comes from Kendrick Lamar's lyric about "venting in the safe house."
WATCH
If you enjoyed listening to this episode, you can also WATCH it with the full visualizer on my YouTube Channel. I highly recommend watching this one so you can see the footage of Saleh and I zipping through the narrow corridors of Burj al-Barajneh refugee camp.
SOUNDTRACK
E2 playlist. Check out music by Palestinian-Lebanese rappers featured in and inspired by this episode. A lot of great music from MENA features titles written in Arabic, so it can be hard to access. But I have done the work for you in this playlist. Any recs for this playlist for songs to add? DM me!
THANK YOU
- Osloob Abdelrahman for permission to use that chilling track "حيد عن الجيش" (Jeed 'an Al-Jeysh). The minute I clicked on this song and heard it the first time I knew that it was going to set the whole tone for the episode, which it did. I'm so grateful for this hidden gem from 2016.
- "Moustafa." I hope he lets me record a conversation one of these days, or at least some of him reciting his poetry.
- Saleh and Rawiya for treating me and Medina like nothing less than family during our three nights in Beirut.
