Farah Chamma is a Palestinian international writer & performer. She started performing at the age of 15 with a group of poets called the Poeticians. She gained a lot of attention on YouTube from two poetry videos performed by her in “كيف أؤمن” (How Must I Believe) and “الجنسيّة” (The Nationality).

Listen to this conversation as we learn how Farah is evolving her poetry into a new focus and listen to her as she uncovers her relationship with the colloquial (محكي) & literary (فصحة) Arabic language.

Filled with many eye-opening points for any poet, writer or performer I truly enjoyed this conversation and I hope you do as well.

Yaz is a sensational rapper and poet! He has numerous rap songs published (“Outbreak” is my personal favorite and you can hear it at the end of the episode) and has performed in numerous Poetry Nights which you can check out on The Poetryhood YouTube channel. A humble and authentic guy with a great talent, I really enjoyed our conversation.

You can find Yaz on Instagram or listen to all his music on SoundCloud @digitalyoda
