Afghan Rap
I thought some of you might find this article interesting:
Some great lines in the article
-Besho admits wistfully that one day he hopes to include some of what is called "shaking the booty" into his videos. (NOTE: This is followed by a picture of women clad in the blye abayas.)
The new generation are impressionable," Maulvi Mohammed Seddiq, former adviser on Sharia law to the Supreme Court says. "When these dancers are shaking the backside and the front side, this excites the young people. We have less sex crimes in Islam because in Islam we have forbidden the temptations that cause these crimes."
-...the country's Supreme Court sought to ban Tolo TV for showing the Charlton Heston sword and sandals epic, "The Ten Commandments", during Ramadan in 2004. "It showed the prophet Moses with short trousers and among the girls," Wahid Mujdah, a Supreme Court spokesman, said at the time. "He's a very holy person and Islam respects him. This is wrong."
