Cyphers, raw bars, and the unfiltered energy of Arab rap, that’s what Rap Shar3 captures. It’s where voices from the corners and tunnels spit truth, no permission asked.
Blvck B, born in Khartoum and now moving between Sudan and Egypt, started out dropping raw freestyles that spread fast online. From those street bars he built Rap Shar3, turning it into a space where underground voices could connect.
Diving in with “كانت أيام يا وطني”: a track that’s been echoing since its drop, carrying both power and pain. HYPER249, a fast-rising rapper born in Khartoum and currently making moves from Egypt, flows with a bare delivery that lands heavy without flaunting it.
It’s more than a song, it’s a statement, and at Harfan Harfan, we break it down, line by line, through annotations, playlists, and the community that keeps this culture alive.
So what makes this performance stand out
- HYPER249’s delivery is stripped-down, no filter, no gloss.
- The hook “وطني” (my country) feels like a heartbeat, fragile but relentless.
- It’s a cipher that travels beyond its corner, turning a street performance into an anthem for displacement.
What it’s about
“Kanet Ayam Ya Watani - كانت أيام يا وطني” is an anthem of loss and longing, echoing the wounds of a fractured homeland.
