Background notes

Archive material and source history

Barikad Crew formed in Kuala Lumpur in 2005 with three members: Joe Flizzow, Malique Ibrahim, and Altimet. Their self-titled debut album came out in 2007, followed by others like 'Sang Saka Biru' in 2009 and 'Tiga Sudut' in 2012. They often mixed Malay, English, and Tamil in their lyrics.

One of their songs, 'I Got It From My Mamak,' became particularly well-known. It references the Indian-Muslim-run eateries common in Malaysia. Other tracks in their catalog include 'Internal Exile (Fish),' 'Kantrowitz 1972,' and 'Sometimes Good Guys Don't Wear White.'

Their music sometimes touched on social themes, which stood out in Malaysia's conservative climate at the time. They were part of a wave that helped establish hip-hop as a local genre there.
