Stereotypes Incorporated is the new LP from the Montreal based Iraqi hip-hop group Euphrates. The album weaves together modern hip-hop innovation, the politics of grassroots movements for social justice and the spirt of the Iraqi diaspora as the country continues to live under U.S. military occupation.

Listen to an interview with the Narcicyst of Euphrates, about the new LP Stereotypes Incorporated and the recent tragic passing on Nofy Fannan a founding member of Euphrates. The interview explores ideas on the role which Euphrates plays as an Iraqi rap crew in hip-hop culture and the historical links between hip-hop and struggles for social justice.
