LONDON (CNN) -- The latest video from Somalia's al Qaeda-backed Al-Shabaab wing is as slickly produced as a reality TV show but with a startling message -- complete with a hip-hop jihad vibe.

Experts think Abu Mansoor al-Amriki, dubbed "The American" by al Qaeda, speaks in the Somali video.

"Mortar by mortar, shell by shell, only going to stop when I send them to hell," the unidentified voice raps on the video, which runs at least 18 minutes.

The video also shows a man reported to be Abu Mansoor al-Amriki, dubbed "The American" by al Qaeda. He apparently is now in Somalia training and counseling Somalis from North America and Europe. He speaks in American English.

"Away from your family, away from our friends, away from ice, candy bars, all those things is because we're waiting to meet the enemy," says the man believed to be al-Amriki. Watch part of the video »

I like those hootchie mamas in the burqas.

Rap, to me, has always been a form of unAmerican Jihad.

I hope this guy continues that great rap tradition of getting shot to death.

[wyowolf]

rappers? shot to death?? thats pretty rare...

[lormand]

You got that right.

Rap and Hip-Hop both "celebrate" the worst that humanity has to offer. I'm not surprised with this wedding.

MEGA DITTOES! I concur wholeheartedly, sir.

There rap style terrorist propaganda has been in existence for years. If you watch the movie “obsession” you can see a video of terrorists rapping.

[a fool in paradise]

There has been jihadist hip hop for many years now.

There was a post-911 rap threatening more such attacks. And even the American Taliban recruit was a hip hopper who dug deeper into the words behind the songs and found himself on the path to jihad.

Baby got back-fire!

Remember last year when the media was all down on racist neo-nazi punk music? By ugly bands that had been around for 20 years?

This headline seems like a cheer being given, not a condemnation.

[a fool in paradise]

Shhh. CNN is owned by Time-Lies-Warner. They know what is best for us.

I wonder if Warner Music has discovered they may be already releasing jihadist rap.

Number One with a Bullet!

[jveritas]

It is amazing how we on the internet know stuff years ahead of the media.

[a fool in paradise]

The media knows. They pretend this is “new”.

Again, their headline is offensive because there is no condemnation. Like it’s an improvement of something “Yo!”.

[jveritas]

Again, their headline is offensive because there is no condemnation.

I totally agree. The liberal fools think that terrorism should not to be taken seriously.
