Upset about The Suffering of civilians In Syria 's war-torn Idlib province, a young student comes with his own form of Protest Rap.

Twenty-year-old Amir of the opposition-held town of Maarat al-Numan is raging against all those involved in the fighting.

President Bashar al-Assad, and his Russian and Iranian allies, The Extremist groups, which dominate in Idlib, and the corrupt local officials are all a soulful tongue-lashing from the riled rapper get.

In The Music video for his latest composition, On All fronts, Amir stroll through The Almost empty, shattered streets of his home town, fashionably dressed from head to foot in black, spitting out the lyrics.

This is The Playground of the Russian leader

Now, if you all, the speech in Sochi, it could have been to stop

For The Music videos of the Western Rapper the bullet-hole-walls of a bombed-out school, built on a set. But for Amir , these signs of devastation are all too real.

But why is he rap, write songs, about everything, instead of the More conventional staging protests?

"I have a passion for writing and rap mainly because I see it as a political tool That allowed me to take a stand against everything and creative to accompany my words with the rhythms and beats That I want. I love this kind of tempo, since I can talk to about political issues, which can not be triggered elsewhere. "

Amir to sing personal life certainly a lot.

His brother was killed trying to cross the closed border into neighboring Turkey-and His Family often forced to move home in order to escape bombardment by the Syrian government, and Russian combat aircraft. He managed to escape to Turkey, but soon felt compelled to come back to.

"I, as after the death of my brother, I was the oldest member of My Family . and I have three-year-old siblings, and need to support them," he says.

"My Father is almost totally incapable of working by themselves and needs someone to help Him . "

Before he left Turkey, Amir bought me a microphone and a laptop with a little help from his father.

This was highly valued elements of a makeshift studio he created in his bedroom in His Family home. Then, after some friends brought Him in with the various sound-engineering and editing programs, he was up and running.

Quietly spoken, when not rapping, this serious young man with a neatly trimmed black beard and swept back dark hair, sings of his dislike of the Syrian and Russian governments.

proceed As follows: to suffocate the people, the breath, as you are the best

The Regime of feeding on the bleeding of the common man

While airplanes drop of terror out of the sky, Amir raps about Like the Islamist extremists, such as those of the powerful Jihad-Allianz Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), which the US and UN say is linked to al-Qaeda fear and corruption on The Streets of Idlib has.

HTS false witnesses to accuse you of stealing

While you are it, the in the villas, with their Fancy Cars and weapons

the Manipulation of the markets, talk trash to shred the work.

Amir says: "Here, every group has a different religious school, and sees the other as blasphemous, because every doctrine is not in agreement with the other, and use these differences as a pretext to fight against each other. "

And all the liars talk As If the religion claims to be on your side

Take your niqab [veil]: this country is in.

Amir , the studies, the graphics during The Day and works in his father's business in the night, the Young People who have little or no education, annoys, such as The Conflict has led to the closing of many schools and universities, leave.

Those educational institutions That have survived, the bombs are often closed or Under Pressure from extremists - a warm regret, That the much-s is reflected in Amir ' song.

Why should I be sad: for my future in this country?

the student after the student denied An Education .

Or should I be sad, to be lost for The Teacher to me?

Who promised, "We will never lose hope"; now, where is he?

The Day after I interviewed Amir , he was forced to flee his home due to the intense bombing of Maarat al-Numan, as pro-Assad forces intensify their attack on the southern Idlib.

But although he left his homeland and ever-popular recording studio, which he firmly believes That his rapping protests have paid off.

"It can play a positive role in the lives and morals of the people in the name of whom I speak.", he says.

"the war is a very malicious thing, so it is a possibility That The Voice of these people and speak for them. "
