El General
Hamada Ben Amor (حمادة بن عمر; born 7 October 1989), known by the stage name El General (الجنرال; also written El Général), is a Tunisian rapper whose protest songs became widely associated with the early phase of the Tunisian revolution of 2010–2011.
His song "Rais Lebled" has been described by international media as an "anthem" or "battle hymn" of the uprising that led to the fall of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali. During the protests he was detained by Tunisian authorities, prompting international press-freedom and news coverage.
