Slow Moe: Saudi rapper with a positive message

Today I'm going to introduce SLOW MOE. Saudi rapper as he is one of the pioneers of rap in Saudi Arabia.

According to SLOW MOE that he have a message he want to deliver, complaining that people have wrong thoughts about Saudi rap and really slow Mo is doing a very good Job ,moreover SLOW MOE have the same tune voice of 2pac and you can see from his songs that he is influenced by 2pac.

“I am the first Saudi rapper who raps in English. I am the first Saudi who actually reached out to the world with deep words like in my first official track ‘Arab Pride,’” he told Arab News.

Born in Madinah and raised in Denver, Colorado and Jeddah, Moe remembers spending his life in all three places. At 26, he admits it was an intricate turn in his life when he opted to pursue his passion by using the medium of music in the English language — something he feels allows him to be understood by all and not just Arabs.
“What people need to know is that I do my tracks in English because my main plan is to reach the outside world and spread the power of Islam in a global language,” said Moe.
The rapper said the media often spreads falsehood about Islam and hence his agenda to turn that around. His first chance to do this was when he heard a track called “Arab Money Remix.”
“They were singing part of the Qur’an in the track. So I made my own song, “Arab Pride,” to show them that it is wrong to sing Qur’anic verses in a song.”
Moe dares to be different and his songs are a message for those who have the courage to listen. “I respect all religions,” he pleads in his song asking others to do the same with Islam. Moe stepped out of his comfort zone to face the world with a true face and call for unity among his people regardless of cast, culture and creed. Adding substance to rap here is the rapper in an exclusive interview with Arab News.

Rap is not my job. It is my hobby. It is my way of expressing myself. It is my plan to change the world. In response, I was told to make it my job and make big money out of it. Yet, being a Muslim, I could not accept forbidden money, so I keep doing it for the same reason I started with. The trick was how to write words with a real message instead of what we normally hear.

Everybody around me supports me in a different way. Even my haters (I love those guys) give me the push to become stronger and spread my words faster.

Big Sean is a very big part of the Saudi thug movement; he is our music producer/rapper. We started in 2009, and he has been his music ever since.

My swag is the power that Allah gave us as united, strong and smart Muslims. My fear is not being able to influence my brothers and sisters around the world and give them the same swag.
