Natacha Atlas adapts ‘Egypt: Rise to Freedom’
Egyptian-Anglo singer Natacha Atlas had already recorded a subversive political song on her record in 2010. Then the uprising in Egypt gave her the chance to adapt that song for a new Egyptian experience. The World's Marco Werman speaks with Atlas about the new track, called "Egypt: Rise to Freedom."
