American female rapper, Young MA, just wrapped up a performance in Abu Dhabi’s MAD nightclub over the weekend as part of the Abu Dhabi Showdown Week and although this isn’t her first time in the UAE- fans were pretty astounded by her appearance.
The traditional male outfit worn by the female rapper caused some concern, in terms of religion, to some. The thobe, otherwise called the Dishdasha or Kandoora, is a garment often worn by men in the Arab region, and is the equivalent to an Abaya for women. Although no rules are enforced on whether or not the opposite sex is allowed to wear the others’ traditional clothing, it is often frowned upon and considered disrespectful.
Some were against this!
Some were indifferent!
