Badran & Sintax Release Heated Rap EP ‘Harrara
A solid sophomore effort following Badran’s debut EP, Alamein.
Egyptian up-and-coming rapper Badran has joined forces with veteran hip-hop producer Sintax on their new EP, ‘Harrara’. This project marks a continuation of their longstanding collaboration, previously seen in singles that showcased their purist approach to rap and highlighted their undeniable chemistry.
The four-track EP serves as a platform for Badran to display his technical prowess and artistic depth. True to its title and thematic focus on 'heat,' from the album artwork to its musical core, Harrara is a testament to Badran’s dedication to the essence of rap. His verses are filled with fiery bars, sharp lyricism, and diverse flows that establish him as a force striving to cement his place in the scene.
Opening with 'Mesh Salek', the EP sets a tone where Badran’s lyrics delve into themes of street culture while critiquing the perceived decline of the local rap scene. His meticulously crafted lines flow seamlessly over Sintax’s restrained production, positioning Badran’s technical skills front and centre, as he navigates the beats with confidence and commanding delivery.
While the EP adheres to a specific production style and thematic focus that may come across as somewhat one-dimensional, it successfully introduces Badran and Sintax as a rapper-producer duo with compelling synergy. Together, they establish themselves as notable figures to watch in the Egyptian rap landscape.
The first half of 'Tara' showcases Badran taking a more melodic approach over an unsettling trap beat, shifting from the EP’s otherwise direct and hard-hitting delivery. The track then transitions as Sintax flips the production, allowing Badran to return to his signature style with renewed energy.
Overall, Harrara stands as a solid sophomore effort following Badran’s debut EP, Alamein. It reflects his growth in technical skill and songwriting while showcasing a newfound conceptual depth, reinforcing his evolving artistry.
