Nafar grew up in Lyd, a mixed city of Palestinians and Jews, home to one of the largest drug markets in the Middle East. As a teenager, Tamer discovered hip-hop and became the world’s first Palestinian rapper. His lyrics and activities reflect the Palestinian struggle, women’s rights, and the promotion of alternative art within a conservative society.

In 2000, Tamer formed the first Palestinian hip-hop group DAM, along with his brother Suhell Nafar and friend Mahmood Jrere. One of their first single, s“Min Irhabi” (Who’s the Terrorist) was downloaded over a million times, making DAM a household name among youth throughout the Middle East.

In 2004, DAM released the single Born Here, followed by a major campaign launched by Nafar to bring awareness to the disparity of Arab communities within Israel. In 2013, Tamer directed the photography campaign “Room No4” to protest child arrests in East Jerusalem, and in 2014 DAM released the video “Who Are You” directed by Oscar-nominated Palestinian filmmaker Scandar Copti. The video was accompanied by a viral social media campaign for women’s rights in the Arab world. In 2019, DAM released their“Ben Haana Wa Maana” album through the British label “Cooking Vinyl” & with “F-Cat” the booking agency for tours around the world
