As a part of the celebration of 30th anniversary of the Islamic Revolution a “Samfonye Enghelaab” is being preformed at the moment and the singer Nima Masiha has been chosen to sing the POP segments of the musical fusion. I must say that its very interesting to point out that although every year there are many, mainly underground, POP singers who perform and release religious hymns and homages to the 12 Imams of the Shi’ites, there is almost none who does anything in memory of the revolution! Nima Masiha is one of the few, if not the only, POP singers who has decided to attend to such controversial government-led project.
