I never thought there'd be such a thing as an Iranian rapper. Evidently, the Moolahs don't like them too much, so they kill them?

 
I guess those turban-wearin' 'Holy Men' don't like to brook any kinda bullshit. In 2022, Iran had a 22-year-old woman murdered for improperly wearing a hijab. Now, it’s preparing to have a 33-year-old killed just for rapping about it.
It’s only more evidence of the lengths to which Tehran’s mullahs will go to oppress dissidents and maintain iron-fisted control over the country — and, indeed, over every aspect of Iranian life. 
On Oct. 30, 2022, Iran’s goons arrested Toomaj Salehi, a 33-year old Iranian hip-hop artist, and detained him in its notorious Isfahan prison. His crime: committing music. His lyrics, roughly translated: “Someone’s crime was that her hair was flowing in the wind. Someone’s crime was that he or she was brave and [was] outspoken.” 
So - I guess ya gotta ask yourself - WTF is so holy about that shit? The fuckin' guy sings a song and they're gonna kill him for it. I wonder how Salman Rushdie feels about this...
I gotta admit - the idea of rapping in Urdo or whatever the fuck language they speak is a bit foreign to me, but it actually does sorta sound like rap music - he just never uses the big 'N' and there ain't a 'fuck' to be heard - at least not that I know of...
