Tanbe10

Tanbe10 (abbreviated as TB10) (Persian: Tan-be-dah – تن به 10), meaning "One Against 10", is an underground Iranian hip hop group from Tehran, formed early 2007 by Amir Aemha, Mehdi Alpha, Ali10 and his brother Reza Moty and is part of the late first-generation of gangsta rap in Iran, a sort of an artistic rebellion, as producing western style music and even more "rap" are prohibited acts in Iran since the 1979 revolution. The general theme of their songs includes self-praise and the description of their current mood which is a representation of the Iranian modern society. In contradiction with old school hip-hop artists, all of the group members hold at least a post-graduate degree and even some are at a Phd level which results in the use of scientific words and expressions in their lyrics, setting them apart from other conventional hip-hop artists in the country. As of June 2023, Tanbe10 consists of Amir Aemha, Mehdi Alpha, RezaMoty, Pooria Sharlatan (Sharly) and Parham Potki (AKA Sezar)
