Israeli Rap – Cafe Shahor Hazak
Lesson Brief
Shironet
In this set, you will prepare to listen to a song from Israeli rap group Cafe Shahor Hazak (Strong Black Coffee). The rap group is composed of two Israelis of Ethiopian descent who began rapping at a young age and eventually hit it big, touring both in Israel and the U.S. Part of the group's success has been that they can pull off rapping in Hebrew, whereas other bands have failed due to the natural structure of the language that can sound awkward if made to rhyme.
