 know how to see. No wonder he feels watched by the powers that be. Time 
 Magazine. The NY Times. CNN. BBC Radio. Al Jazeera. That’s the kind of 
 attention Narcy has received in the past few years as one of North 
 America’s only Iraqi-Canadian Rappers. Combined with his reputation as 
 being an intelligent ambassador for conscious Arab Hip-Hop with searing 
 lyrical content and impeccable flow, Narcy is a rising force in the music 
 and academia scene of Canada and internationally. Looking to share the 
 experiences of being a non-traditional Muslim in the West, Narcy combines 
 his thought-provoking lyrics with wit and humor to put listeners at east 
 and open up a dialogue. \nhttp://www.iraqisthebomb.com/\n\n"Hamdulillah"
