In his song, Mohamad is singing about how strange life is, how harsh the nights are: ‘Oh this life is so strange... our home became very far. Very far.’ But before he can finish, he is overcome by homesickness and with his head in his hands, he cries. He is crying for his beloved country and for the father he left behind.Abu and Mohamad are residents of Zaatari, a refugee camp located just a few kilometres east of Mafraq, Jordan, near the Syrian border. Originally established as a temporary settlement in July 2012 for Syrians fleeing the civil war, Zaatari is now home to an estimated 79,000 refugees and stretches over five square kilometres.The Jeeni Refugee Aid channel supports refugee aid and charities across the world.

Joesef - Does It Make You Feel Good?
Joesef - Does It Make You Feel Good? The recently released track from the EP of the same title, available to buy in all the usual places. A well produced track with some nice brass running through it. Love the video too, shot by Molly Burdett of Spindle Films. Has a lovely 'slice of life' feel to it, with some Ken Loach vibes too.#joesef #jeeni #music #musician #joesef #independent #soulmusic #nujazzmusic #brass #trumpet #singersongwriter #musicvideo #sliceoflife #ep #kenloach #musicfest #community #talent #unsigned #creatives #fans #superfans #earn #pay #paid #ethical #honest #fair
