Mustafa - Gaza is Calling (Official Video)

ALBAWABA - Palestinian-American model, Bella Hadid is the talk of social media after being featured in a pro-Palestine music video called "Gaza Is Calling," by Sudanese-Canadian Mustafa.

Mustafa took to his official Instagram and promoted the song by showing snippets from the music video. Moreover, he also added in the caption that all proceeds garnered will be donated to Gaza and said that the song was written and recorded a long time ago. Here's what he wrote: 

"G@Za is Calling is out everywhere. The link is in my bio. Proceeds go to the children of P@lestine. It haunts me that this song/film was written and recorded so long ago, it is also evidence of how this nightmare & occupation has always been, how before a lens there was still an angel accounting for the death of a child, the death of a freedom, death of an innocence."

Joining Bella Hadid, was Palestinian rapper MC Abdul as brother and sister. Hadid was seen consoling Abdul because of the painful past they had to endure in Gaza due to the ongoing Israeli aggression on Palestine since 1945. 

Mustafa added that "Gaza Is Calling" was written and recorded in tribute to his childhood Palestinian friend Ali who was played by MC Abdul. 

He said on Instagram: 

"To Ali, wherever you are, I love you, and I hate that we escaped wars in our homelands only to be met with a dark one in that small Toronto hood, a war we waged against each other. G@za calls you still," and followed with a thank you to both Bella Hadid and MC Abdul for performing in the music video. 

In the description on YouTube, Mustafa also added a donation link for whoever wanted to donate to the people of Gaza due to the ongoing Israeli aggression since Oct. 7, 2023, which resulted in the killing of at least 37,431 Palestinians.
