A mysterious trance track called “Allahu Akbar” (“God is the greatest” in Arabic) reached number two on music streaming site Spotify Viral Chart in the UK over the weekend.
The track hit second on the chart despite the fact its artist, DJ Inappropriate, was previously unknown in the world of music.
The phrase ‘Allahu Akbar’ is used by Muslims in prayer and as an expression of faith. It can be heard in the call to prayer heard from the minarets of mosques throughout the Muslim world.
Recently it has become more widely associated in the West as a battle cry during acts of terrorism by jihadists.
It was shouted by gunmen during the Bataclan siege in Paris on November 13, in which 89 concert-goers were killed. Some 130 people were killed in total during the terror attacks in the city.
Mystery surrounds the purpose behind the upbeat ‘Allahu Akbar’ track and why it has become so popular.
A music expert told the Sun newspaper it is not meant to incite hatred.

I'm dying, haha :v:
The article reads like a satire. How out of touch do you have to be to consider it "mysterious" and must be "consulted by music experts"
The soundcloud comments are murder on my sides as the song plays.
... That's real fucking catchy too, godamnit.

Wow holy crap
We totally need a remixed version of R'akfasf or whatever its called but with some KYGO or Clean Bandit touch.
CHVRCHES may also do as well.
EDIT: Got it. It's called habbatka r-riih
Already driven around town with this blasting from my car :v: it's not only a great track but the amount of "i'll kill you" stares is an adrenaline rush.

Let's be honest, shit is fucking catchy. This sounds like a perfect track to listen to as I'm working with Hammer.
It inspired me!

Pretty generic honestly. You could put literally any audio clip there instead of the allahu akbar and it wouldn't change a thing.
Also the article is embarrassing. It reads like it was written by someone whose never used the internet before.
