The Energy of the 2018 Tour: Erkez Hip-Hop – “Mezwed Fsa3”
On November 11, 2018, Collectif DEBO unveiled an exceptional archive with the release of the live extract “Mezwed Fsa3”, taken from the grand Erkez Hip-Hop show. Captured during the legendary #KhalliTrace tour, which set 11 stages ablaze across Tunisia (passing through Tunis, Tabarka, Le Kef, Kairouan, Bizerte, Kasserine, Gafsa, Sfax, and Sousse), this track is the pure essence of this revolutionary project.
The Vocal Frontline
On stage, the dynamics of Erkez Hip-Hop take on a whole new dimension. The audience is carried by the raw energy and charisma of the collective’s heavyweights:
- Vipa
- Massi
- Tiga Black’Na
These three MCs navigate with surgical precision over complex live instrumentation, proving that Tunisian underground rap has no stage limits.
The Sonic Architecture: An Unprecedented Groove
The true engine of “Mezwed Fsa3” rests on the perfect fusion between traditional Tunisian percussion and a modern rhythm section. The heaviness of the beat and the melodic flights are provided by an orchestra of elite musicians:
- Montassar Jebali – Mezoued
- Mohamed Ghazi Dhrif – Darbouka
- Imed Rezgui & Akram Ghadhab – Bendir
- Youssef Soltana – Drums
- Marwen Soltana – Bass
- Selim Arjoun – Keyboard
- Ayoub Rekik – Guitar
