The Philistines

WORLD-CLASS HIP-HOP

About Me

Since 2001 the Philistines have been serving up real hip-hop for real hip-hop heads. Staying true to self and the game, representing our home (PALESTINE what) and our homes away from home (TENNESSEE big ups L.A. all day D.C. fo' sheezy).***Members have performed around the world from Vancouver to Beirut, produced the first arab-american hip-hop joint to secure a nationwide distro deal (FREE THE P what Slingshot Hip-Hop's in SUNDANCE b*tches!), and generally caused a ruckus everywhere we've been. And we can't can't stop. Won't won't stop...
