I always forgot that most people don’t recognize satire if we don’t literally tell them that it is, it seems really weird in the internet era. Anyway, this skit is such an accurate representation of that kind of shitty interviews and the way cultural illiteracy (and racism in this case) can’t take away the meaning of songs and the artist intentions.

For those confused, it is a skit inspired by true events that has happened to her in the music industry. Very unfortunate that she had to put up with this throughout her career.

Guys a lot of you seem to be confused, this is satire that basically shows what she’s been through, that’s the whole point of this being uncomfortable 😂

The fact that this is a reenactment still doesn’t change the fact how wild this story is, like tf?

wow the chemistry between you and your interviewer was UNREAL! ALMOST NONEXISTENT!

a music podcast being called lessmusic is so funny already

Honestly this brought about such a visceral reaction within me with how misunderstood and misconstrued her words were and I'm so proud of how well she stands her ground. I wish I was as strong as her I those similar moments (I know it's satirical but still based in reality) and it's really cathartic that frustration is natural but you still shouldn't compromise your self-respect. ANYWAYS this is so creative and engaging can't wait for an actual podcast interview 💕

‘Did you just change?’ “No” 🤣🤣

not the bleeping of the word Palestinian 😭

This feels unreal. Like an snl skit. This is crazy.

I believe this is satire probably with her experience with Much Music, a music platform here in Toronto.

This shit is so unbelievably racist it feels like a skit. So sorry you’ve endured that horrible interview. Glad that you are able to expose these horrible people. Free PALESTINE 🇵🇸

They are doing a great job with the acting! The satire is on point

I came here from TikTok to watch the whole thing, but I don't think I am ready mentally to put up with this dude. I don't k ow how you managed to be there for so long. I don't know who he is, and I'm gonna keep it this way! Nemahsis ❤ I have even more respect for you now, sister! You are a role model!

This was amazingly done and showed so much nuance what it means to be a Palestinian in the music industry, thank you for making this nemahsis

This is actually so good omg it sucks that she’s had to go through so much in her career.

a very convincing skit, but im so sorry for the thinmgs you have been through. love you

You are so talented and clever in every level. Thank you for existing, you are infinite and perfect 💖

When i had seen the first two minutes, i was like, this has got to be a satire skit show, this can't be real, the idiocracy of the interviewer not understanding the "take it off" metaphor or the deliberateness or giving it the opposite meaning... I thought to myself, this can't be real. Until i understood that it is sadly based on real events of ignorance and racism behaviour, which the world (people, us) sadly still suffer all to much of...😢

Omg. I am mind blow and jaw is still dropped! Wow - I’m speechless.

So inspired by you, Nehma! Thank you for being you.

We appreciate you nemahsis

The s*icide part was so funny😭

someday my improv and theatre years will pay off

Iconic 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

I'm so sorry you went through this. You have more grace and dignity in your little finger then both of these arseholes combined. I love your music!!

This was so uncomfortable.. wow

"i listened to it top to bottom bottom to top" 4 seconds later "im just reading my producer's notes on the album" "is this useable is it marketable?" this is great skit writing i dont doubt this happens often

I legitimately thought this was satire… Oh my gosh!!!😮😮 damn glad you walked off!

I went so angry for about two minutes.. till I found this. . thank the universe this is not real!

The interview went soo bad that is has to be a skit. Please don’t let this be real. You are doing well nemah!

genuinely couldn’t tell if it’s a skit or a real interview for a second, felt too familiar

So well done.👏

Top level marketing 💖💖💖 keep going 🇵🇸

i’m crying this is so uncomfortable to watch. you popped off

This is why people love you and your music your 100% real and authentic and won’t alter your views for anyone and you will call out the racists. Their behaviour was disgusting. Sending you so much love and FREE PALESTINE 🤲🇵🇸

Get her Oscar immediately 😂❤

This was so hard to watch

oh i love you nehmasis

He said "is this marketable" wooww!, journalism died the second you prefer profit rather than truth.

It’s a skit guys

Loool so happy this is a skit , I was like there is no way this is real, but it also sad it actually happing maybe not with the same audacity but still with lol love it.❤😅

I'm sorry you went through this

OH MY GOD PLEASE TELL ME THIS IS UNREAL

Also kudos to the interviewer, amazing acting!

Guys this a skit

LOVE

Laughing crying throwing up 🍉🍉🍉 Thank you for being real 🤍

not nemo , sis 😭😭

I love how her and Bella look like twins!! and they’re both Palestinian. it makes my heart happy to think of them both 🇵🇸❤️

I'm misunderstanding the rage farming here.

Love his baseball cap! He is great at satire.

it’s so scary how realistic this was 😑😩 one day palestine will be free & hopefully you will never have to go through this again!!! 🇵🇸

Good video, truly shows what its like when Palestinians are interviewed in the media and producers don't let them talk about the thing that is their WHOLE IDENTITY because its "controversial"

epigenetics mentioned RAAAHHH

I can’t tell if this is a skit or not… like seriously. It seems like a very obvious skit to me, but everyone in the comments is acting like this is real.

love it

❤❤❤

I'M SCREAMING

It’s embarrassing how poorly they prepared to interview you and it’s disgusting how poorly they treated you.

when your whole existence is hyperpoliticized by the world 😢 sorry you went through this shit

please tell me this was a skit this is actually surreal 😭😭😭😭😭😭

I am shocked!

“i am just existing”

I can’t believe this isn’t a skit who allowed this guy

You go ❤️✊🏽🇵🇸

Based on what I saw here, and keeping in mind I don't know much about the context beyond that, this is what I make of it: The disrespect and mockery of beliefs and identities that are non-confirming to Western ideas is a deliberate tactic applied to downplay the seriousness of your message. It's a sneaky game and an easy way to push the unassuming guest into defensiveness and cunningly invoke a reaction. It easily makes us seem uptight, one-sided, victimised and discredits our argument. We grew tired and made the mistake of responding with unreserved honest passion. The hard truth is that not everyone will APPRECIATE this honest passion and not everyone wants the truth and some can't deal with it so they go out of their way to resist and fight it and anyone who speaks it. They want to make themselves look good by making us look bad, it's a weak move and we don't OWE explanations. Just let them expose their foolishness, play dumb and pretend to be curious about what they mean, they'll be put on the spot, reveal their delusional bigotry, and disprove their own points without needing to waste your time educating about message they aren't even capable of comprehending or listening to. Bassem Youssef picked up on this game and started to approach the stereotypical comments as an opportunity to expose their ignorance through questioning the controversial claims and allow them to explain their own problematic logic.

She reminds me of doja cat in a way. Love it!

This is so real

Not the su*cide theme 😭😭😭

The way this is going is utterly ridiculous. They need to be held accountable for the ignorant behavior and hateful behavior.

❤❤❤❤

I know this is satire but man, this is how my life has been always, my mom used to tell me to NEVER mentioned I was Palestinian in front of my classmates/professors/bosses/friends like Israel threw my family out of their ancestral homes and IM THE ONE that has to be HIDING?!?

woo that dude is really OUT OF IT omg
