The band members created that sarcastic name for the band since they felt that the society is trying to imply its power over people starting from their childhood till the day they die. This social power wants to stereotype everything including the way we think and feel, leaving no space for creation and innovation.
Massar Egbari presents music and songs talking about our social problems. Love is not our main concern although it represents a part of our songs.
Through the members' different musical backgrounds, the band is presenting a kind of Alternative Egyptian Music, mixing rock, jazz and blues with some Oriental music.
-In October 2006 Shadi Abd El Azim joined the band. Shadi plays acoustic and electric guitar and sings as backing vocal.

Massar Egbari Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ولا محتاج أنا لحاجة
لو عايز صحيح حاجة
ما خليتوليش ولا حاجة
أنا ما بخافش من حاجة
مانيش مسنود ولا حاجة
فرضا لو حقول حاجة
حيحصل ايه ؟ ولا حاجة
في ناس تكبر علشان حاجة
وناس تصغر علشان حاجة
وناس منظر ومش حاجة
في ناس تديلك الحاجة
تبقي ليها محتاجة
وناس تديلك الحاجة
تاخد قدامها ميت حاجة
ناس بتعيش علشان حاجة
ناس بتموت علشان حاجة
ناس بتموت علي الحاجة...
علي الحاجة...
زمانكوا يا خلق فيه حاجة
ولازمه كام وميت حاجة
عن نفسي أنا مفيش حاجة
مفيش حاجة...
مش أنت بردو مفيش حاجة؟
وانتي زيي مفيش حاجة؟
مش قولتلكوا مفيش حاجة
مفيش حاجة...
في ناس لابسه ولا حاجة
وناس مش فاهم أي حاجة
وناس ناسية كل حاجة
في ناس تكبر علشان حاجة
وناس تصغر علشان حاجة
وناس منظر ومش حاجة

The song "Mokdama" by Massar Egbari explores the idea that some people live their lives in pursuit of material possessions or status, while others prioritize different aspects of life. The lyrics suggest that the singer of the song does not need or want anything in life, and is not afraid of anything either. The song further delves into the idea that some people may pursue material possessions, while others may prioritize family, love, or spiritual growth. The lyrics also touch upon the idea that some people may be oblivious to what is happening around them, others may pretend to be someone they're not, and some people may even forget their own history or heritage.
The repetition of the phrase "mefish haga" (I don't need anything) emphasizes the simple and uncomplicated lifestyle the singer desires to live. The lyrics suggest that many people waste their time chasing after things they don't need, while the singer is content with living a simple life. The song encourages listeners to reassess their priorities and find happiness in life's simple pleasures, rather than being caught up in the rat race of materialism.
Overall, "Mokdama" delivers a powerful message about the importance of finding contentment and happiness in life's simple pleasures, rather than chasing after material possessions that ultimately bring no lasting happiness or fulfillment.

I would really like to know what the name of the instrument is? Is it just an electric guitar? If so, what kind? It sounds very unique.
