al:masaar

Al:Masaar


I’m neither a die-hard fan nor a fanatic of nasyid groups coz over the time the genuinety of nasyid songs have kind of ‘missing’ somehow. These days you not only have fusion food but fusion songs too.For this matter, Nasyid with slips of raps in between are the in-thing now or should i say its on par wif world music? You preach while you rap! However, come to think of it, if this method can indirectly send its message to the people out there..why not?As long as things don’t go overboard..that’s the beauty of Islam.

Next..have you all heard the latest ramadhan theme song by Ustaz Sofyan feat i-do-not-know-his-name rapper? Cool kan? My distant-relative ni very the talented & humble.I’m trying to get his video from you-tube.Btw, he’s also active in this Nasyid group who called themselves Al: Masaar.


A short synopsis of Al:Masaar.
