ARXP Cartel

Rooted in its unique approach to unify audiences across the MENA region, ARXP Cartel is an artist collective featuring a rotating line up of the biggest, most buzz-worthy rappers in the region. The collective will release one single at a time, with each collaboration not only capitalizing on the crew members’ domestic fanbases, but also transcending those existing listeners to reach audiences across MENA’s 22 states. Furthermore, ARXP Cartel will tap into opportunities across the globe as the project amasses new fans and joins forces with other international recording artists.

The second release by the collective will be Dokhan (or ‘Smoke’), slated for Sept 21st. Dokhan boasts a catchy chorus while delivering hard Arab drill verses that see the return of Didine Canon 16 and Eslam Jawaad, while introducing Moudy Al Arabe, and the MENA region’s pioneering female MC, Malikah.

The single was produced by Egyptian team NOVO and Issa & Assouad known for their work with the likes of Wegz, Ahmed Mekky, Sharmoofers, Afroto, Shreya Ghoshal and many more.

Mixed by Marcella ‘Ms.Lago’ Araica whose credits include Mariah Carey, Timbaland, and Britney Spears, the single is bound to keep your speakers pumping.
