“Falling in Lust isn’t falling in Love”

Essam Muhammad is from South Seattle, WA, USA of Moroccan descent. He harmonizes Rhythm And Poetry into his art which brings a unique and contemporary aspect into the Islamic realm of creativity. He comes from a community where the youth all share something in common, which is experiencing trauma from a young age. The arts became an outlet of expression to escape from the internalized oppression he has faced.”
