There has never been a band quite like 47SOUL. Semitics, released in August 2020, is the group's second album — a bold fusion of Palestinian and Jordanian musical tradition with contemporary electronic production. Rooted in the sounds of debke, the album weaves the joyous, flute-like tones of the mijwiz alongside hip-hop and trip-hop influences to create something genuinely unique in the world music landscape.
Thematically, Semitics is a study of Semitic culture with a focus on community, family, and belonging, with lyrics that oscillate between defiant hope and stark bleakness. Tracks like "Border Ctrl" and "Dabke System" pulse with resistance and energy, while "Witness" and "Lil Disco" venture into darker, more atmospheric territory. For collectors and music lovers alike, this is a vital and powerful record that stands as a landmark in music rooted in Palestinian identity and expression.
