Healing Hands

Healing Hands
[2012]
Lyrics & Music by Doc Jazz

If you have been following the activities of Doc Jazz, you probably know that he has been invited by the Southern California chapter of PCRF (Palestinian Children's Relief Fund) to perform on their annual Healing Hands Gala.

This gala, which helped in raising funds for medical assistance to Palestinian children through PCRF, took place on October 13th 2012 in Anaheim, California.

Honored by the invitation, and inspired by the heart-warming humanitarian and medical activities of PCRF, Doc Jazz – who happens to be a surgeon himself, as you probably know – composed a song that pays homage to the Healing Hands that cure Palestinian children who are unable to obtain treatment for their ailments..
You don't need a gun to be a hero

De Vlag

De Vlag
[2002]
Tekst en muziek van Doc Jazz
Album: The Musical Intifadah [2003]

Gretta Duisenberg, the wife of the late ex-president of the Europese Centrale Bank (ECB), in 2002 hung a Palestinian flag from her balcony to protest against the illegal Israeli occupation.

This song was aired by Felix Meurders on VARA Radio "De Ochtenden".

Aan het balkon van huize Duisenberg in Amsterdam hangt al een week de Palestijnse vlag.

President Duisenberg van de Europese Centrale Bank is in ernstige verlegenheid gebracht doordat er al bijna een week de Palestijnse vlag aan een balkon van zijn huis in Amsterdam wappert. Buurtbewoners vragen zich af wat de vlag aan het huis van één van Europa's meest vooraanstaande publieke personen 'in vredesnaam' te betekenen heeft.

Hungry

Hungry
[2013]
Lyrics, music and production by Doc Jazz.

A rap song dedicated to the incredible bravery of Samer Issawi, on hunger strike in an Israeli prison, and to all other Palestinian hunger strikers.

Samer Issawi followed in the footsteps of other famous Palestinian hunger strikers such as Khader Adnan, Hanaa Al Shalabi and Mahmoud Al Sarsak, who - along with many others - protested against the inhumane Israeli practice of administrative detention. This song is sung from a first person perspective, and aims to empower the courageous message that these brave people send while resisting against injustice.

Lyrics, music/vocals and production by Doc Jazz

This song is dedicated to Jannah and Masa Foqha, 8 and 10 years old, murdered April 29th 2010 by an Israeli army jeep. Anger at the Zionist murderers over their deaths was further increased by the absence of public fury and media attention, hence the Gil Scott-Heron inspired intro.

No Justice, No Peace

[2010]
Lyrics, music and performance by Doc Jazz.

The newspaper - and the politicians - are full of talk about Peace ... and still many are disappointed or surprised that after many years of 'talks', nothing has been achieved. Why? Because one must aim for Justice, before one can attain Peace.

Lyrics, music and performance by Doc Jazz
It's 2010 - and the major powers of this world are still using the logic of the stone age ... so this funky song calls for 'Soulvation'! The Doc Jazz definition of this concept: justice - not greed - as the main basis for a peaceful world.

[2005]
Album: Front Door Key
Lyrics and Music by Doc Jazz

Are you still unfamiliar with the harsh reality of Israel's colonization schemes, covered up by pretty stories about peace wishes? If so, read up on reality - check out Stop The Wall

Israel is enjoying its immense military overweight over the Palestinians, and practicing massive repression of the population, while counterattacks have become a rarity ... doesn't time fly when you''re having fun? But the primitive practice of racist Apartheid will not be without its price...
