Earlier this month, the “Singer of the Revolution,” as he came to be known during Egypt’s eighteen-day uprising, which ousted former president Hosni Mubarak, concluded his first U.S. tour with a small but well-attended event at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Around forty audience members, most of whom were Egyptian (a fact that allowed Essam to speak comfortably in his native tongue), listened, laughed, and sang along as the up-and-coming rockstar belted out some old Tahrir Square favorites, as well as a few newer pieces.
