Recap of Chautauqua Visit 2015

Marsiya
شەيد كربلا كي مومينوں جب ياد آتي هے تژپ جاتي هے دنيا خون آنسوں بەاتي هے يا حسين shahîd-e karbalâ kî momînoñ jab yâd âtî hai taRap jâtî hai duniyâ xûn ânsûñ bahâtî hai yâ husayn When believers remember the Martyr of Karbala The world becomes upset Blood flows as tears Oh Husayn!

I only know a few Hip-Hop Hoodios tracks, but I like what I’ve heard. I wish I lived closer to the City and could make this gig — it sounds like a lot of fun… 🙂
They do sound really interesting. It’s times like this I miss the big city. The only time we get culture up in Boston is when the Yankees come to town.
I just downloaded “Raza Hoodio” (legally) and “Havana Nagila.” OMG, I’m in heaven. Going to get the album. Yiddish and Spanish on a Bollywood beat. I really miss NY more than ever.
