Al-Marsad newspaper: Festival performer Hama Beka fell into a fit of tears while hosting a television program, while talking regarding his crisis with the union and preventing him from singing.
Hama Beca said while crying, following being asked regarding his reaction if he was prevented from singing outside Egypt, saying: “I would die myself if I refrained from singing outside Egypt. I am hungry and tired. People see that we are insects, I feel that some treat me like an insect.”
Hama Beka sent a message to the captain of the musical professions, artist Hani Shaker, saying: I am Professor Hani Bishr, the sons of Adam, but you are bullying me, enough to injure us. Do countries not listen.. I am sore and tired, enough so that it is bullying.
Hama Beca continued: I worked two ages and was called upon them.. I am living dead, and you have palaces and a villa.. You lived, ate and drank, and we are trying to live a little.. It is forbidden for us to live. You say if my hands were prevented, you are our Lord! Our Lord does not say that, you will hold me accountable.. This world is not permanent for humans, and I will not forgive until the Day of Judgment.. Nor in my life I will never forgive them.
