He’s arguably the biggest name on Egypt’s bustling rap scene. A man that has, over the course of a decade, seen the ins and outs, the good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly of a rap scene that is the envy of the region.
From recording tracks in his wardrobe, to headlining sell-out gigs, Abyusif represents the elite of Middle Eastern rap. Behind the mask, though, behind his iconic sad-face logo, is Yousef Altay, a simple man forever at odds with the art form he loves and the fame that inevitably comes with it.
In this exclusive documentary, #SceneNoise goes into the home and into the mind of an often brilliant, always engrossing artist who never stands still.
