مواقفها: 
كان لها مواقف إنسانية كثيرة أثبتت فيها أن الفن هو رسالة سامية يقف في وجه الظلم، من هذه المواقف غنائها إبان حرب تموز في تونس للبنان و الجزائر ومصر مما جعل الناس يتعاطفوا مع الشعب اللبناني ويرددوا الشعارات الوطنية، وأيضاً تحملها مسؤولية توفير التأمين الصحي للعجزة من خلال برنامج ليلة حلم، وأيضا تقديمها منح دراسية للطلاب الذين ليس بإستطاعتهم توفير المال للدراسة من أبناء مدينة زحلة الذين يدرسون في ذات المدرسة التي درست بها (مدرسة يسوع الملك).كما انها بصدد بناء سلسلة مدارس لتعليم الابدتدائى المجانى و دار ل الايتام

Najwa Karam Karam was born in Zahlé, Lebanon, to Karam Karam and Barbara Chahine Karam, a family of Lebanese Maronite Catholics. She is the youngest of five children, having an older sister, Salwa, and three older brothers, Tony, Jean, and Nicolas. She spent her childhood in Zahlé, in the care of her parents and older brothers.
Karam attended secondary school at Jesus the Angel College, and then worked as a teacher for two years at Eastern College, Zahlé.
Karam studied at the Lebanese Institute of Music for four years, to improve her knowledge of music and the music industry in general.
In 1989 Karam's first studio album, Ya Habayeb, was released by a then-little-known record label, Relax-in International. The album contained seven tracks, all in the traditionalLebanese traditional/folkloric style. Due to her previous exposure to the Lebanese public, the album was well received in Lebanon but did not receive much attention from the rest of the Arab world.

After a three year-hiatus from music-making, Karam returned to the scene with her follow up album, Shams el-Ghinnieh. The album title was inspired by her nickname, "Shams el-Ghinnieh" ("sun of the song"), which was given to her by the Lebanese people and media because of her vocal abilities. The album was recorded by another small record company, CM. The style of the album was more romantic and contemporary, in comparison to Najwa's debut, Ya Habayeb, which was more traditional. Shams el-Ghinnieh was received very well 

by the Lebanese public.

The next year, 1993, Karam signed on with another record label for her new album. This time it was an even less-known Saudi Arabian company. The new album was called Ana Ma'akon ("I am with you"). The album was classic in style and quite different from Shams el-Ghinnieh, not really reflecting Najwa's artistic identity. Despite her personal discontent, she had no choice but release it, bound by a contract with her production company. As expected, the album failed to do as well as Shams el-Ghinnieh. Poor marketing and lack of resources did not help much either and were blamed for the low sales of the album. It remains Karam's least-known album, although many of her fans consider it the best, in terms of showing Najwa's abilities and voice-power.
Najwa's fortunes took a turn for the better when she was approached by the Middle East's largest recording label, Rotana, owned by the Saudi Arabian Prince Walid Bin Talel. An agreement between the parties was made, and Najwa was now on Rotana's roster.


Work on a new album began immediately. Expert poets, writers, and composers were enlisted to help Najwa make a fresh new musical image for herself to revitalize public interest, and finally draw attention from the wider Arab audience. By mid-1994, an album consisting of 8 new songs had been compiled and was ready to be released to the Middle East. Naghmet Hob (The Rhythm of Love) fused Lebanese tradition with Arab pop. Its catchy Lebanese dance song "Law Habaytek" ("If I Loved You") was an instant hit, introducing Najwa Karam to all of the Middle East. The song and its video clip dominated the Arabian charts. Its follow up hits from the same album were "Wrood Eddar" ("Roses of the Garden") and "Elala" ("La La"), which received similar success.
The wide success of Naghmet Hob fueled a concert tour and a number of awards for Karam, including a prize from the Lebanese Broadcasting Association for the Best Artist of 1994.
Karam had been thrust to the top of the Arabic music scene in less than a year, and was now constantly in the public eye. In 1995, Najwa started work on her second Rotana album, her fifth release in total. It was titled Ma Bassmahlak and closely followed the traditional style of Naghmet Hob. The main difference was the lyrical and vocal nature of the tracks which had more depth. Riding the wave of her celebrity, two of the songs were hits, namely "Ma Bassmahlak" ("I Won't Allow You") and "Hakim el-Qady" ("The Judge Has Spoken").
With five albums under her belt, the latter two of which witnessed ground breaking success, Najwa was becoming a familiar face in the Arabic music industry. On 16 June 1996, Karam released her newest album entitled Hazi Helo ("I'm Lucky"). The title track, "Hazi Helo" and three other songs, "Khayarouni", "Ala Mahlak" and "El-Ghorbil", were the most popular from the album.

Following the release of Hazi Helo, Najwa set off on a large-scale world concert tour, which would take in many Arab states, parts of Europe, and America. She found a number of fans in the U.S., and performed to sold-out concerts all over. To honour her success in the U.S., Najwa was presented with the Key to the City of Chicago.
After the sell-out world tour, Najwa returned to Lebanon with a fresh mind and new song ideas. And so work began on her next studio album - Ma Hada La Hada. The tracks on the album were quite different from those of Najwa's previous albums, with a more contemporary sound. For example the song "El Helw" was heavily influenced by foreign beats and synthesised melodies. Three months prior to the album's official release, the song El Tahady was distributed to the Arabic radio stations. By the time of the album's release, the song's popularity had dwindled, and Ma Hada La Hada's relatively poor sales were attributed to this factor. However, the title track did become quite popular. It had harmonious musical arrangements which used the traditional Lebanese instrument the Qanoun, along with other traditional instruments such as the violin and the accordion. These musical stylings, along with an uplifting song topic and a powerful "mini movie" video clip made the song a huge hit.
The 1998 release, Maghroumeh, marked Karam's "official" transition from purely traditional Lebanese artist to the blend of traditional and contemporary Arabic that she is famous for today. It had poetic Arabic lyrics sung with Najwa's trademark power and authority; extensive use of Arabic instruments (trumbakke, mijwiz, zamour, tabal... etc.) and contemporary ones; and a brand new look for the album cover. Maghroumeh was another success from Karam. The title track, "Maghroumeh" ("I Am in Love"), was shot as a video clip, and was the biggest hit off the album, hitting number one on most radio stations in the region. Other hits were the feisty "Ghamza" ("The Wink") and the sad love song "Noqta al-Satr" ("Somewhere along the line").

 The new year brought about a number of changes in Karam's career lives. Najwa's new album was set to be released in the summer, and her personal changes were showing in her new album Rouh Rouhi. It was similar to the Maghroumeh album, but had a number of tweaks in the vocal and musical styles. The musical arrangements were heavily detailed and technical, and the lyrics were more poetic than all other Karam albums. The tracks "Ariftu Albi La Meen" ("Do you know who my heart belongs to?"), "Atchana" ("Thirsty"), and the title track, "Rouh Rouhi" ("Soul of my Soul") were the major hits off the album, the latter two being shot as music videos. Many other songs succeeded like "Kif Bdawik" ("How Do I Treat You?)", and "Ma Berda Ghayrak" ("I Don't Accept Anyone Beside You").
Another year, another change for Najwa Karam. This time it came about in the form of a music album called Oyoun Qalbi. Oyoun Qalbi was a more romantic, reflective body of work compared to Karam's previous albums. Its major included "Majboura" ("I Have to") which had a modern jazz influence, and the "power ballets", "Oyoun Qalbi" ("Sweetheart") and "Khaleek al Ard" ("Stay down to Earth"). A music video was made for the Najwa 2000 megamix, which contained samples from each song on the Oyoun Qalbi album. The album sold over 5 million copies, topping charts. It holds the up-to-date record for best-selling Arabic album of all time.


In 2001, Karam made her record breaking release Nedmaneh. It sold over 4 million copies worldwide, and is one of Najwa's most acclaimed albums to date. It followed on from the style of music first presented by Karam in Oyoun Qalbi, and further experimented with new styles and sounds. The song "Aaskah" ("Falling in love") was an enormous hit, hitting number one all over the Middle East, and was also quite popular abroad. It was a more playful and vibrant song than most of Karam's previous work, with a strong bass line, and a distinct oriental influence. It was quite different from any Arabic song at the time, and appealed to a wide range of audiences. The success of album Nedmaneh brought about a number of awards, including a coveted Murex D'or for "Best Arabic Artist" award, and three special awards from Karam's production company, Rotana: "Artist of the Year", "Album of the Year" and "Highest Selling Album".
To further Rotana's crediting of Karam's successes, an honouring assemble was held on Saturday, 23 June 2001 where Karam was awarded for her achievements throughout her singing career and for the huge success of Nedmaneh. The ceremony was held at the Venesia Hotel, Beirut, Lebanon. In attendance were the Lebanese Minister of Information,Ghazi Al-Aredi who was representing the President of the Lebanese Republic, Émile Lahoud, prominent singer Wadih el Safi, acclaimed composer Elias Rahbani and a number of journalists and reporters. During the night, Karam sang some of her hits (old and new), and was presented with numerous medals and trophies. The recording was released on a special edition CD (Live in Concert), along with a compilation CD of Najwa's hits from 1989-2000 titled The Very Best Of Najwa Karam.
Karam's 2002 album, Tahamouni, was far removed from the "easy going" contemporary feel of Oyoun Qalbi and Nedmaneh, and audiences noticed. The album was intended to get back in touch with a more youthful audience from other Arab nations, with whom had taken slight dis-interest in Karam's music from the late 90s. This was shown though songs likeTahamouni (They accused me) which included attempts at rapping, and Ew'a Tekoun Ze'alt (I hope you're not mad at me) which seemed to have a complete Western influence. The songs had a youthful sound.

In late 2002, Karam began meeting with the Lebanese "tarab" star, Wadih el Safi (Born 1919). Wadi had known Najwa for a while, and had been impressed with her vocal talents. The two of them decided to make a duet together, depicting the trials of a father-daughter relationship. The song was titled W Kberna (We grow old together), and was an epic ballad in which both vocalists showed immense vocal range and depth. W Kberna was a success as the lyrics were easy to relate to and it teamed two of the region's most prominent artists together.
Taking this success, Najwa got back to the drawing board for a new album. Months were spent piecing together lyrics and arrangements, and by mid 2003, the album was ready for release. Rotana set up a large launch party in Downtown Beirut, where over fifteen thousand of Karam's fans packed the streets, waiting for Najwa to appear and sing her new material.
Saharni (Charmed) was exactly the kind of album that was a rebirth of the "old Najwa Karam", and took the public by surprise, as they had at this point come to expect contemporary pop from the Shams el-Ghinnieh. The music had all the makings of distinctly Lebanese music: trumbakke solos, traditional wind instruments, lots of bass and a vibrant singing style - all features far removed from the "western" motif that most artists opted for at the time. Not only had Karam's music changed, but she also sported a new look, which further emphasised that the album was a turn around. Saharni's success was instantaneous, even though there was a lack of video clips for the songs, the album came through on top of the charts, and produced a number of major hits, including Edhak Lil Dounya (Smile to the world), and the title track Saharni (He charmed me).
Najwa made a world tour to complement Saharni's success, taking in the Middle East as well as destinations such as France and the U.S. with Wadih el Safi. She also travelled to Australia, where her concert there still holds the record for largest ever recorded concert attendance for an Arabic artist. Najwa was presented with a number of awards and achievements in 2003. These include "Highest Selling Album" from Rotana, and award for the "Best singer of Traditional Lebanese Song" from the Lions Club, "Song of the Year": Edhak Lil Donya from Sawt El Ghad Australia and an honorary Award from Australian Government.


As the New Year came and passed, Karam began work on a new single to be included in her upcoming album. This single would be like no other she had released before. TitledLeish Mgharrab? (Why are you living abroad?) it told of the hardships that people face when having to leave their home country for a better life. Coupled with this harrowing topic, was a revolutionary new music video (directed by Sa'aed el-Marouk), which would transform modern day Beirut into a bleak and harsh wasteland in 2020. The original video - which also contained scenes of citizens protesting against the Lebanese government - was banned from being aired by the Lebanese Parliament. When the clip was edited slightly, it was finally allowed to go to air, along with its song. It hit home with many people, especially those living abroad in countries like Australia and the U.S.. It also sent a direct message to Lebanese politicians, telling them to act on their words.
After a few months, Najwa had completed the rest of her new album, Shu Mghaira..!. Like Saharni, it was distinctly Lebanese, but it was more of a modern adaptation, with a reflective and sad overtone. Najwa continued her many live appearances to promote the album, and a notable event for 2004 was her sell-out concert in Carthage, Tunisia where she performed to thousands of enthusiastic fans. The tracks Bi Hawak (In your love) and Shu Mghaira (How you've changed) were shot in an expensive duel video clip which was riddled with special effects. It remained at the number 1 position for 6 weeks on the Rotana Top 20 Chart. The two songs were the most popular from the album, and Najwa obtained the as "Female Artist of the Year" from MusicanaNet.net, which was decided via a large scale internet poll.
In the second quarter of 2005, Karam released a new single and video clip called Shu Jani. Shu Jani was a contemporary pop song, with the use of traditional Lebanese instruments. The video was filmed in the Faraya ski resort in Lebanon by director Sa'aed el-Marouk. It was to be on her upcoming 2005 album. The timing of the new clip was criticised in some tabloids, because it was released during the tense electoral season in Lebanon, and the so-called Cedar Revolution (Independence Intifada). It was argued by these tabloids that it was disrespectful for Karam to release new material at such a time. Karam defended herself by putting the claim on her Saudi production company, Rotana, who she says fast tracked the release against her wishes. Even though there was some controversy surrounding Shu Jani, it fared well with the public.
Due to the prolonged situation in the Lebanon region, Karam's 2005 album was postponed from originally being released in June, then July and then finally postponed until November 2005. However, Karam released another single in late July called Bhebak Walaa which was an upbeat, contemporary/traditional song typical of Karam's usual work. It was a fairly big hit, hitting number one on many internet and radio charts. On 6 September 2005, Karam released the video for Bhebak Walaa, directed by Salim el-Turk.
In November 2005, billboards and unipolls all over Beirut were displaying a lady's hand upon a cloudy horizon. No writing was on the posters. The advertisement had the public wondering what message the posters were relaying, and who did the mysterious hand belong to? Soon it was generally concluded that the hand belonged to a recording artist, but there were many conflicting suggestions as to whose it was. Gradually, the billboards had bits of the lady added to the picture, until on 30 November 2005 the "mystery lady" was revealed as Najwa Karam.


On the same day, Karam's 15th studio album, Kibir'el Hob (Love Just Got Greater) was officially released. The album gained widespread attention through its rigorous advertising campaign, which included the billboard posters, many television appearances [on popular variety programs such as Dandana, and Akeed Maestro], and music video clips for singles. Kibir'el Hob topped the highest selling album chart in Lebanon for Rotana during the Christmas sales period, and remained in the number one position through the New Year. In mid April 2006, Karam released a third and last single from the Kibir'el Hob album, accompanied by a video clip, and proved to be among the most popular Arabic songs of the 
year 2006.


In response to the 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict, Karam teamed for the first time with popular Lebanese singer/songwriter Melhim Barakat to record the song Rah Yeb2a El Watan. The track was written and composed by Barakat, and called for unity among all Lebanese people. The single was released in late September and was critically acclaimed for its message and vocals, although criticised for its short running time. Plans for another collaboration with Barakat are underway.

The remaining songs are: "Wale'"(light the fire), "El Deni Em" (a mother is the whole world), "Albi Masna' Baroud" (my heart is a gun factory), "El Haramy" (the thieve).

The song, along with its video clip, which featured in it the Guinness world record for largest plate of tabbouleh, sponsored by Najwa, were well received, and reached great success.
Then on November 11, 2010 Najwa released her next single "Lashhad Hobbak" (I'll beg for your love). Its video clip aired on Rotana Music Channels, attracting a large audience through its classy styles, such as the spider-webbed characteristics. The song became very popular among the masses, and it became a favorite of Najwa's fans. The beaded fulle spider-web bodysuit, designed by Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad, that was worn by Najwa in the video clip, was later also worn by Jennifer Lopez, in her music video, "On the Floor."
In late 2010 although there were doubts of a new contract between Najwa and Rotana Production Company, after several meetings with Salem El Hendi, Najwa agreed to return to Rotana. Haifa Wehbe attended the dinner party which was held after the press conference telling the press that she was glad to accept Najwa's invitation and delighted to be part of the celebration.

On January 17, 2011 Najwa was the last guest of the popular show, "Absher" with Nishan.
On February 23, 2011 the first issue of the online Najwa Karam Magazine was published by her official Page on Facebook (facebook.com/NajwaKaram).
After Najwa decided to postponed her upcoming album, a Song called "Wayn" appeared on the internet. The song was verified stolen from the Najwa Karam Office and released without her permission. The song was recorded three years prior in 2009 and was removed from that year's Album, "Khallini Shoufak." Although illegally released, the song was well liked, and was played on numerous radio stations. With its slow rhythm and different style, unusual of Najwa's music, it reached the top ten singles, and became a favorite, especially among Najwa's fans.

On June 28, 2011 Rotana released "Hal Leile...MaFi Noum", Najwa Karam's 19th Studio Album. The album contains the usual 8 songs, 3 of them, "Mafi Noum," "Shu Hal Leile," and "Eainy Bi Eainak" were written by Najwa Karam herself. "MaFi Noum (There's No Sleep)" and "Shu Hal Leile (What a Night)" were both successful before the Album release. After only three days, the Album reached Number 1 on Virgin Megastore Charts, pushing Nawal Al Zoghbi's album, "Ma'rafsh Leh," that stayed 5 months at the top of charts from number one, down to number five. With Najwa's huge success, Tamer Hosny, a well-known Egyptian singer, was unable to land a number one spot for his new album, "Elly Gai Ahla," which was released the same day. Also unable to reach a number one spot was Assi El Helani with his album "Rouhi Ana." Two weeks after the album debut, with "MaFi Noum" still at the number 1 spot on the charts, A 3D Video clip was released for the song "MaFi Noum." It became the first produced 3D Music Clip in the Middle East, giving Najwa the earned distinction of first Arabic artist to create a video using 3D technology. The feat was accomplished with the assistance of three professional teams from the US and the UK and the Lebanese W&P Production Group, which undertook extensive research on 3D techniques to familiarize the Middle East crew with the breakthrough technology, including the handling of sophisticated 3D equipment and digital cameras that were used for the shoot. Directed by Waleed Nassif, the video was created by Sony, and produced by Rotana. The clip received huge success as audiences were wowed by the up-beat style of the interactive Video clip. During the opening sequence, The Clip features, Season 1 Arabs' Got Talent contestant, Abdelmalek Al Baljani, from Morocco, in a dance solo. Because of his advanced dance skills, on the show, Najwa, a judge on Arabs' Got Talent, had made a promise to cast Al Baljani in her next video, and when she actually did, many were surprised. The three-day shoot took place in Northern Lebanon, at Nahr Ibrahim, in the Kesserwan area of Basateen Al Ossi, Jeita Grotto, and at the studio of Mansourieh. The 3D version premiered at the ABC Achrafieh theatre in Lebanon on July 25, 2011 and the video clip is currently being played in 600 3D Sony showrooms and outlets, throughout the Arab world. The clip was also shot in 2D to enable TV viewers to watch it on their regular TV sets. The "MaFi Noum" 3D clip had one of the largest production budgets in the Middle East.

Controversy regading the usage of "DOUM TAC," in "MaFi Noum"

The song "MaFi Noum" Employs the fun, "Doum Tac" Derbake notes as a part of its variety of music styles. But the "Doum, Tac...Tarra Doum Doum Doum" parts of the song were at first questioned. In critiques and popular fandom, some believed that the derbake notes were unnecessary in the song, but after repeated listening to the song, especially over the radio, the "Doum Tac" parts become catchy and fun to sing along, and the "MaFi Noum" video clip adds to their appeal as the notes are associated with sudden movements and swift dance moves in the 3D music Video. Najwa has continuously reiterated in interviews the meaning and significance of the "Doum Tac" music notes. In concerts, the audience sings along the "Doum Tac," and it, like the well-known lines "Rooh Rouhi," "Ana Ma Fiyeh," and "Aam Bimzah Maak" has become a trademark and popular label of Najwa Karam's.

Duo rap proveniente da Gaza formato da Mohammed Abu Daya ( محمد أبوديه ) e Khalid Abu Daya ( خالد أبوديه). Hanno cominciato la loro attività alla fine del 2007 inizialmente come hobby, animati da un geande amore per la musica.. Si sono resi conto velocemente di come il rap potesse essere la valvola di sfogo per esprimere le frustrazioni causate dalla situazione politica e sociale presente nella striscia di Gaza. Perseguendo la loro attività con assiduità e presenziando a numerose attività sociali si sono creati un buon seguito a Gaza. Hanno prodotto alcuni buoni pezzi sia come duo che in collaborazione con altri rappers della striscia. Tra i brani che hanno riscosso maggior successo c'è " (عنا في الحارة ( الغزاوية - 'na Fe Al7ara " nato da una collaborazione con : Mohamed Antar, Menem Awad, Ahmad Zeidan e Majid Antar.

Alla fine del 2012 hanno realizzato un mixtape molto interessante intitolato "We worked اشتغلنا "

La nuova consapevolezza intellettuale palestinese, il "Combat Rap" di Milad As-Soudy 





Durante l'ultimo decennio la musica rap palestinese ha raggiunto una certa visibilità a livello mondiale. Prestigiose riviste (musicali e non) hanno dedicato servizi e copertine a gruppi una volta sconosciuti. Nomi come Dam e Darg team, in seguito a collaborazioni importanti e brani di forte impatto, hanno conseguito una relativa notorietà presso il "primo mondo".
Il rap palestinese, attraverso rime intelligenti e consapevoli, ci racconta la realtà dell'occupazione. A dispetto di ogni previsione, l'uso della lingua araba non si è dimostrato un ostacolo insormontabile alla diffusione dei pezzi, come sembrava invece in un primo momento, e grazie alla buona volontà di vari estimatori del genere sono facilmente reperibili in rete traduzioni di brani emblematici come "Min Erhabi" (“chi è il terrorista?”) dei Dam e "Unadikum" del Darg Team. 
Si tratta di un fenomeno in forte crescita e il numero dei pochi gruppi presenti nell'area all'inizio degli anni 2000 si è moltiplicato a dismisura arrivando a creare una scena eterogenea decisamente interessante. Per contro, è facile pronosticare che alcune delle realtà esistenti difficilmente verranno scoperte dal pubblico occidentale, rappers che, sebbene molto popolari in ambito locale, molto plausibilmente vedranno confinata “geograficamente” la loro fama. Tra questi vi è sicuramente Milad As-Soudy. Palestinese di nascita, Milad As-Soudy ha trascorso la sua infanzia a Baghdad dove ha portato avanti i suoi studi . In seguito alla guerra del golfo si è trasferito nella vicina Siria e dopo un breve periodo trascorso nuovamente in Iraq è tornato nella natia Palestina, stabilendosi a Ramallah. Qui ha dato vita a "Musiqa Soudwa'yya", uno dei progetti più interessanti dell'intera scena rap palestinese, che, secondo le sue parole: “rappresenta un modo per lottare e combattere ogni giorno” . Epifanico è il motto che campeggia nella sua pagina Facebook: "chi è stato educato a tirare le pietre è difficile che partecipi ad una manifestazione pacifica". Una posizione che, a prima vista, sembrerebbe quasi violenta, ma che risulta quantomeno comprensibile ad una più attenta analisi del personaggio e dell’impegno concretamente profuso. A differenza della maggior parte dei rappers palestinesi, infatti, che dedicano le loro rime allo stato dell'occupazione ma che non disdegnano avventurarsi in territori più ludici, Milad As-Soudy, lontano da logiche mainstream, porta avanti un discorso esclusivamente politico, volto a creare una consapevolezza intellettuale che mira a rompere le catene della soggiogazione – non solo economica – di Israele. Il suo messaggio è principalmente indirizzato al popolo di Palestina, del quale rappresenta una sorta di coscienza civile, ed il suo potrebbe essere benissimo catalogato come una sorta di "Combat Rap". 
Le rime di Milad As-Soudy , nate in risposta agli eventi sociali e politici, non offrono una semplice testimonianza delle sofferenze patite dalla popolazione palestinese ma rivestono una precisa una funzione sociale. Nei brani di Musiqa Soudwa'yya , se lo stato israeliano è il convitato di pietra, il moloch sempre presente   molte critiche vengono rivolte ai governanti palestinesi. In brani come "Wizara al isfaf wa al tajhyl" (“Ministero del declino e dell'ignoranza”) dedicato al ministro dell'istruzione palestinese e alle sue politiche assurde e "Risala ila D. Salam Fayyad" (“Lettera al dottor Salam Fayyad”) indirizzata al premier palestinese e alla sua paradossale politica economica, Milad As-Soudy offre molti spunti di riflessione ai suoi conterranei. Nel brano "La takhafy " (“Non abbiate paura”) esorta a prendere come esempio le rivolte scatenatesi nei paesi arabi e in "Risala ila al 'am al jadid" (“Lettera all'anno nuovo”) invita apertamente al boicottaggio dei prodotti israeliani onnipresenti nei territori occupati. Tra i suoi bersagli non mancano anche i colleghi rappers accusati di aver dimenticato la funzione dirompente della rima ("i'tazal al rap") o i governanti stranieri, " 'Ammu namizah" è il messaggio al vetriolo indirizzato all'emiro del Qatar e alle sue opinioni sulla questione palestinese. 
Nonostante la sua fervente attività, Milad As-Soudy ha acquisito soltanto nel 2011 una certa notorietà nei territori in seguito alla realizzazione del brano "Risala ila Mona Lisa" . La Mona Lisa in questione è Mona Lisa Abdo, la prima ragazza palestinese ad essere entrata volontariamente a far parte di "Karkel", unità combattente d'elite dell'esercito israeliano dedicata all'anti terrorismo. In varie interviste la ragazza ha affermato di considerare Israele come la sua patria e di non credere che esista un sistema di apartheid. Come è facile intuire, queste affermazione hanno scosso non poco la comunità palestinese e il brano composto da Milad As-Soudy non ha contribuito affatto a smorzare le tensioni. Il pezzo, giudicato da alcuni offensivo e pericoloso, polemizza apertamente con le affermazioni di Mona Lisa Abdo, accusata di aver ceduto la propria casa all'occupante e di rappresentare un pessimo esempio per tutte le generazioni future. 
Tra le ultime produzioni di Musiqa Soudwa'yya vi è "Risala masmu'a - Al am'a' al khawaya" (“Messaggio acustico- gli intestini vuoti”), brano dedicato ai prigionieri politici palestinesi in sciopero della fame e a quell'aberrazione che è la detenzione amministrativa. 
Questa è la musica di Milad As-Soudy, il rapper senza berrettino in testa, senza orpelli cool e soprattutto senza peli sulla lingua.

Purtroppo Milad As-Soudy ha deciso di comunicare esclusivamente attraverso la lingua araba ( nel particolare in dialetto palestinese) . I contatti, il recupero di informazioni e la traduzione dei testi risulta quindi faccenda abbastanza complessa. Comunque,  per quanti volessero manifestare il proprio sostegno Milad As-Soudy è reperibile presso la sua pagina Facebook o presso il suo canale Youtube  intitolato " Safe Vison", un altro dei suoi progetti in corso. 
A questo indirizzo si può recuperare una buona selezione dei brani da lui realizzati.
