BREDx

Lege-Cy
Lege-Cy is an Egyptian rapper, singer, songwriter, and producer from Tanta, known for blending hip-hop, trap, R&B, soul, jazz, and traditional Egyptian influences. With introspective lyrics, melodic versatility, and a distinctive experimental sound, he has established himself as a unique voice in Egypt’s alternative hip-hop scene. Through projects such as Plan B and the Placebo trilogy, he continues to push the boundaries of Arabic hip-hop through musical innovation and personal expression.

Zaid Khaled
Cairo-based Jordanian artist Zaid Khaled turns his stories into intimate Arabic pop. Part dance floor. Part daydream. From the playful electronics of his debut album Tayarat o Sayarat, a collaboration with El Waili, to the richly arranged compositions of Ahla Ayam Hayati, his sound keeps shifting while staying personal. In Le Blad, he traces a journey from North Africa to Blad el Sham. His latest EP, Sahar el Layali with Ahmad Diaa, is led by the standout track Khatem.

Bu Kolthoum
Mhd Mounir, better known as "Bu Kolthoum"

is a renowned producer, songwriter, and rapper in the Arab region.

What sets him apart is his seamless blend of sonic worlds,

drawing from the ""Tarab, Zajal, and Ataaba"" influences of his upbringing.

These heritage sounds integrate with a diverse palette of Hip-hop, R&B, and Soul that has

refined his artistic vision for over a decade.

He has produced what are now considered modern Arabic classics, establishing himself as a

pioneer of a unique sonic model across the Levant, the Arab world, and beyond
