 "... but if you wanna make tough love, too/ for a change can I be the one to handcuff you?"

Founded in 1999, Palestine's first hip-hop band DAM (Mahmoud Jreri and brothers Suhell and Tamer Nafar) have recorded 100+ singles and released two albums, the first of which you can pick up here. 

My friend Carol & I saw them last Sunday at Drom in Manhattan, which is where I picked up this, their second album. So exhausted I can't write more about the show, but be advised that they are so, so worth going to see if they wind up performing in your town.
