Our Response To Gaza

Go Baba! Is a collective DJs whose mission is to highlight the Afro, Arab, and Caribbean diasporas. We pride ourselves on building community by uplifting the sounds that are often marginalized in the music industry.

We are blessed to share the stage with our very own, Nanoos, who identifies as a Palestinian living in exile. Go Baba! fully supports the Palestinian plight to freedom and the Right to Return. We stand by the resistance because we believe oppressed people have a right to resist colonialism, apartheid and occupation. This goes for 1948 and even prior. The colonial entity has no right to inflict genocide on the Palestinian people.

Free Palestine from the River to the Sea

Free Palestine 🇵🇸
