this new twist in the midst of controversy

0

Heuss L’Enfoiré needs no introduction! The 30-year-old artist can boast of having his hits looping around the airwaves internationally. But so far, an upcoming performance of the star has had the merit of sparking strong reactions on social media. On May 11, the interpreter of “Moulaga” was to organize a concert at the Desert Club in Rishon Lezion in Israel. The Muslim rapper would thus be one of the first to shine in the country.

But his arrival earned him a shower of insults and criticism. In addition to harassment, Heuss L’Enfoiré has also been the target of threats. Some anti-Israeli organizations have also called for a boycott of the latter or the forfeiture of his Algerian nationality. This Thursday, April 27, 2023, Yaacov Bensemhoun, the Israeli producer of the showcase came out of his silence on the set of “Grandes Gueules Middle East” on i24NEWS, the Altice group’s news channel.

Facing the camera, Yaacov Bensemhoun regretted the turn of the event: “Following the violence suffered by the artist, we mutually agreed that the date would be postponed. We wanted to create the event. He would have been the first French Muslim rapper to officially go to Israel” . During the interview, Yaacov Bensemhoun also lifted the veil on the feelings of Heuss L’Enfoiré.

“There were very strong repercussions on his family who live in Algeria. He was afraid for his relatives. He was afraid for himself. He did not want to go any further in this process”, he pointed out. Yaacov Bensemhoun hopes that the controversy will run out of steam as soon as possible. Even in the turmoil, the organizer remains optimistic: “I think things will change […] The fraternity that is being created with our Arab and Muslim friends. It’s in progress… History is being written […] I am very optimistic to say that there will very soon be an event with Heuss L’Enfoiré or another […].
