DJ Haram is a musician known for merging central/west asian musical traditions with abstract hip-hop/club, and power electronics. She frequently collaborates with Moor Mother (700 Bliss), Armand Hammer (billy woods + ELUCID), Bbymutha, and Aquilles Navarro. Haram’s antagonistic and amorphous solo debut Beside Myself ranked as The Wire’s No.5 Album of the Year and was quickly followed by Critical Thot, a deliberation on unapologetic feminine authority in collaboration with rapper Sha Ray.
