Cultural exchanges are of colossal importance and really serve as bridge builders and shrinking the distances during the times of conflicts. Isloo really needs a break, especially  when we are passing through a declared state of war. US Embassy in Islamabad is organizing a super duper Hip-Hop musical concert on Tuesday, the 15th November at PNCA where F.E.W. Collective, a US Muslim Band (DJ Asad Jafri a.k.a Man-o-Wax, Jonathan St. Clair, and Daniel Haywood) will perform on strong beats. It is great opportunity to enjoy live hip-hop dance and powerful artistic 
movements.
