Bladi is a song about reminiscence of one’s home country, and particularly mine, Palestine. The song was originally written and performed by Lebanese singer/songwriter Ahmad Kaabour and has somewhat become part of the Palestinian folklore. I recently rearranged this song whilst visiting Palestine and decided to record it after being stranded in London during the COVID lockdown.
It is the first time for a while that it was just me and my music, and so I used the resources I at my disposal to create this powerful electronic sound. The sound is different to that which I’m commonly associated, this is because I was looking for a powerful way to deliver this piece with raw enthusiasm and positivity; I hope the audience feels the emotion behind it.
Lyrical Theme: Calling out to whoever’s going back to my home country to deliver my regards, tell my family and friends that I miss them tremendously, ask my mother if dreams are still forbidden, and tell her that she’s always on my mind.
