Mayada El Hennawi - Bayent El Hob Alaya

Syrian diva Mayada El Hennawi's 1993 album is a good example of popular music in the 1990s. The album starts off with the playful Bayent El Hob Alaya, the relatively short song (by 90s standards) is an accordion-infused Tarek Aakef composition. Alouli Ansa, which saw a dramatic resurgence in popularity when it was sampled on Aaliyah's More Than A Woman, is also composed and arranged by Tarek Aakef. Mahma Aghanni is a great example of the oriental style of saxophone playing, and Addemt El Rouh is a beautiful classically-influenced ballad. The lengthy Ma'ak Lel Nehaya closes the album on a relatively upbeat note. Once nicknamed Motrebet Al Jil (Singer of the Generation), Mayada's style, which borders on conversation, and her old-world grace, is what she is known for to this day.

Warda - Harramt Ahebbak

Algerian legend Warda's successes can be divided into two categories; the tarab songs and the songs that helped give birth to modern Arabic pop. Songs like Aw'ati Btehlaw (Time Becomes More Beautiful), Akdeb Aleik (I Would Be Lying), and Fi Youm We Leila (In a Day and a Night) defined Warda's early career, and made her a legend in a business that was flooded with new talent. However, it is Warda's collaboration with Egyptian composer Salah El Sharnoubi in the early 1990s that defined her late career and gave way to the new wave of shorter, and more pop-influenced Arabic music. One of the greatest collaborations between Warda and Salah was Harramt Ahebbak (I've Forbidden Myself from Loving You):
