Rap music in Iran
Rap is a kind of music that is illegal in Iran. All rappers in Iran don’t have a permission from government, because it’s type is not Islamic. Iran new culture is build on Islam.
Despite they’re illegal, all of them are in Iran. They are underground rapers. They record their songs at midnight.
Rap is here just from 7 years ago, but it’s growing too fast. Rap will be the most popular music in 15 years, because many people love it and because of people, government will give them permission. The best rap music composer is Mahyar.
Rappers are just with their nicknames. Some popular ones are: Pishro, Hichkas, Zedbazi, Felakat, Eblis, Masoud, Tataloo, Tohi, Tighe, Qaf, Enzo, Emziper, 2pack, Farez, 0111, 0098, Tome, Ali King, Dyako, Satrap, Ghiamat band, Rezaya, Ahura,… .
Pop Music in Iran
This type of music came to Iran about 50 years ago. Pop is the most popular music here. Lots of Iranian pop singers are now abroad. It is because the government won’t give them permission to sing songs. The government says that they are not Islamic songs and if they sing songs here, they’ll be punished because it is illegal. So lots of singers are now abroad and singing Farsi(Persian) there. Women can just sing with men, not alone. But still many good singers are in Iran because they gave permission from government.
Some famous pop singers are: Mohammad Esfahany, Sandy, Shahrokh, Shahram Solati, Mohsen Chavoshi, Omid Modiri, Mehdi Moghaddam, Nariman, Sam, Arash, Shadmehr,... .
Common ways of communication in Iran
Like many other countries, in Iran people have lots of ways for communicating, but some of them are special and interesting which are followed in article.
The most popular way is telephone. Many people phone each other to communicate. Nearly all people in Iran have phone lines. In recent years, government spent lots of budget for it, esp. village phone lines and now all Iranian have phone lines.
The second popular way is sending SMS by mobile phones. Cell phones are growing fast here. About 10 years ago, mobile phones were less than 0.5 million. But nowadays there cell phones for more than half of people (nearly 35-40 million).Iran has 2 cell phone operators.
Next way is computers and internet.15 years ago, just few important organizations had it, but know many people have at least one at home, especially children. Iranian hackers are also famous and dangerous. In Iran, most children use computer for playing. Computer games are really cheap here, because those hackers crack games and copy them and sell games to people very cheap, it means that they’re not original. Very few teens work with computers. These are some talented teens. In some big cities in Iran, there are more teenagers like. In Iran there are lots of computer classes around, but many professional teens prefer to learn by themselves, except computer programmers who have to get classes. The problem for communicating with computer in Iran is viruses and hackers, which antiviruses can’t stop them…
Like many other countries, people go to party, see each other outside, etc. But in special days like new years’ holidays, young people come to older peoples’ house, specially parents and grand parents. Young people give gifts from old people. They also eat fruits and nuts there. Then old people come to young peoples’ house. All relative and friend do this. It is a tradition here.
There are many other ways like some other phone services and post, which has lots of facilities, but they’re not popular. Just few people use them.
