NotesVinyl LP pressing. Critically acclaimed Yemenite-Israeli trio A-Wa - Tair, Liron, and Tagel Haim - defy genre boundaries with a delightful union of rap-style beats, high-energy electronic propulsion, hypnotic harmonies, and mainstream resonances. On their second full-length album, Bayti Fi Rasi ("My Home is in My Head") they translate the journey of their great grandmother from Yemen to Israel during the Post-WWII "Operation Magic Carpet" into fourteen undeniable anthems. Sung in Yemeni Arabic dialect and backed by indigenous instrumentation, swaths of electronic orchestration, and gritty hip-hop bounce, it's introduced by lead single "Mudbira" (the Yemenite word for unlucky) which serves as the entry point for the album's narrative.
