112

112 is not only the lebanese police hotline number, but became as well the new record for the longest arabic hip-hop verse !!
Yes I did it; at the age of eighteen i was able to write a 112 bars outro verse related part to another thanking everyone who helped me throughout my career, from my parents, to ashekman, to fareeq l atrach and my fans. In addition to some bragging, smooth/smart punchlines which make this verse meaningful and not boring to hear all long the five and a half minutes.

Intoduction

== INTRODUCTION ==

Firas Hassan Safa (born march 2nd 1992), better known as Fahrass, is a Lebanese rapper, and music producer. It was only at the age of 16 that the glow of Fahrass started to shine when participated in an all star line up mixtape " Peace Beats " ( project was produced by The Permanent Peace Movement ) and managed to be among the top artists!
His first single "Tamara Yassine" reflected how much he was affected by his music idol " Eminem aka Slim Shady aka Marshall Mathers aka Rain Man".
Then was followed by another single "l'Tar (revenge) which reflected as well the violence side and dark thoughts of Fahrass. Wanting to show the other non-violent/caring side he then released a single called "Albe Hayghane (my heart will sing)" which, as it sound, is a love song that young and old, rap and non rap fans fell in love with the simple yet meaningful words.
Around this time he started gaining a popularity in the underground scene being the youngest artist among the all star line-up.

=== Dmegh l'Fahrass; The Song ===

Influenced by the new hip-hop school, he never thought rap was just the voice of the speechless, and decided not to go in the anti-politics hip-hop songs, but instead do something different, fresh, and new to the scene, and he managed to get that done by dropping called "Dmegh l'Fahrass (The Brain of Fahrass) that showed a new side of the arabic hip-hop in general, containing profanity, yet smart profanity, the song helped him get higher in the rank up and was chose as third best arabic mc in lebanon at the age of 18. The song showed Great success in the underground concerts especially with the easy, catchy chorus;However the song was not accepted in the arab world as much as it was in lebanon who is known to be the most open minded country in the arab world; Still yet, Fahrass was banned to perform it in several events such as the opening of "adidas original" stores in beirut downtown city. In addition the song was banned from the http://shuhra.com which is a lebanese/arabic website that aims to expose underground artists and worldwide news!

==== Dmegh l'Fahrass; The Mixtape ====

2010 was one of the most successful years yet for Fahrass; after over 50 performances, Fahrass decides to release his first huge mixtape entitled "Dmegh l'Fahrass; The Pink Version" that contains over 10 singles and 8 ft. with artists such as "Edd" from fareeq l atrach, "Zeineddine", "Venus", "l'Kalach", and others.The mixtape was set to be released in june, however due to technical issues and the fact that he moved to italy to continue his studies it was postponed. But to keep his fans entertained he released some of the mixtapes songs, such as "Masewi' l'Moukhadarat (bad side of drugs)" that was his first social song yet got a lot of success do to it's first to talk about subject. He then released two ft. "La2ino (because) ft. Ashekman" and "Wala Sot (no sound) ft. Jnoud Beirut".But again, the mixtape is being cooked on hot fire and is set to be released very late 2010.It's predicted to set high rankings and good feedbacks !
