Shabjdeed

Abu Othaina (أبو أذينة), popularly known as Shabjdeed, (عدي عباس/شب جديد) is a Palestinian rapper from Kafr 'Aqab. Based in the city of Ramallah, he has become an influential figure in underground Palestinian hip hop.

Style
Shabjdeed's lyrics often discuss the violent implications of the Israeli occupation upon his native Palestinian people. His use of the Arabic language is characterized as playful, using alliteration and rhyming to create a unique style. His delivery has been described as a "constant overflow of words that fills every corner of a track." Shabjdeed's rapping has been distinguished by his thick accent. He cites the Ramallah rap collective Saleb Wahed as a major source of inspiration.

BLTNM
Along with Al-Nather (الناظر) and Shabmouri, he is a part of BLTNM, pronounced "blatinum", in reference to Platinum Records in Dubai and the fact that the P phoneme is not distinguished from the B phoneme in Arabic they are usually both represented by the ب character. The group participated in a campaign for Burberry August 2020.

The critic Ma'an Abu Taleb named Shabjdeed and Al Nather's 2019 track "Mtaktak" for a list of the "greatest hip-hop songs of all time" published by the BBC.
