In   Egyptian Arabic, the word Shaabi refers to the poorer, lower standard   sections of the city of Cairo. The closest English equivalent to the word Shaabi would    be "ghetto." The name came to characterize the style of music     enjoyed in such neighborhoods. You will usually hear Shaabimusic played   everywhere throughout Cairo- in taxis and buses, in your favorite falafel shops,   and lively street weddings. This style of music is somewhat rougher and more playful   than the rest of  Egyptian pop music.
