On episode 32 of The Electronic Intifada Podcast, rapper, activist and all-round renaissance man Lowkey joins Asa and Nora to talk about:
- The purge of anti-Zionist academics from UK institutions
- Islamophobia and the Israel lobby’s role in promoting it
- The role of artists in defending Palestinian rights
- The state of the corporate music industry
- What he did in the years he took time off music
- Drill, a hip-hop genre with a bad reputation
... And much more
Lowkey has always used his music to support the things he believes in: not least the cause of Palestinian liberation.
He talks about the price of speaking out on these issues: being censored and marginalized.
