It's not really Arabic. That look like the Egyptian dialect. Also, Arabic is litteraly a language built to sound as poetic as possible. Fun fact : in ancient Arabia, the best poets regularly gathered for poetry dissing battles and the burns were sicker than anything today.

Egyptian dialect is a dialect of Arabic. It's still Arabic. It's the same as saying American English is not really English.

Also this is not in Egyptian dialect. This looks like the Arabian golf dialect.

American English is not really English.
