Have you ever wondered where the first rap battle ever took place? Science is still searching for an answer to this question but there is a chance it was right here in Malta between two traditional għannejja (singers)!

This improvisation based form of folk singing is unique to Malta and guarantees that no two għana experiences will be the same. għannejja are an integral part of the cultural fabric of Malta and remain popular throughout the island today
