Hoda Saad - Ertaht

Moroccan singer Hoda Saad's debut album is a mellow, mostly traditional one. Hoda skillfully sings in the Egyptian, Lebanese, and Khaliji dialects, as well as her native Moroccan dialect. Hoda's soft, feminine voice does not instantly distinguish itself, but it is good and well-employed throughout the album. Hoda works with some of the top names in the business, including Walid Saad, Salim Salameh, Mahmoud Khayami, and Mohamed Rifai. Looking like Egyptian songstress Sherine can't hurt either.

Nawal - Nawal 2006

Nawal, or Nawal El Kuwaitia as she has come to be called recently, has been professionally singing for a quarter of a century now. Her ever-changing style started with traditional Khaliji songs, but today her portfolio boasts a wide range of styles, including western-influenced Khaliji ballads, Moroccan, Egyptian, and pop. Nawal's first attempt at the Moroccan dialect, the hit Tammen Galbak, is included, the hit Tammen Galbak. The first single, Inta Tayeb, and Gelli Meta are arranged by Egyptian arrangers Khaled Ezz and Hani Farhat, like the majority of Asalah's 2007 Khaliji album. Fel Bedaya is an interesting track which uses a vast number of instruments, including the clarinet, violin, ney, kanun, piano and accordion, coupled with various percussions, Egyptian and Khaliji. The songs with a purely Khaliji feel to them are arranged by Tarek Aakef, who despite his Egyptian origin is no stranger to Khaliji music. Tefadhal is a typical Khaliji dance song, while Dekhil El Hob and Ala Keifah are mellower, but all are instantly recognizable as Aakef's work. The remaining songs are in Nawal's signature style, Khaliji but always with international influences, ranging from Latin to Egyptian.

Nawal Al Zoghbi - Elli Tmanneito

Having cut off all ties from Rotana, Nawal signed up with Alam El Phan in 2002, after a string of hit albums (Mandam Aleik, Ma Loum, El Layali, and Toul Omri). Barely a year after Toul Omri, Nawal released Elli Tmanneito in 2002. The rushed manner of the album, and misunderstandings with the press put Nawal under heavy stress, and she stayed out of the public eye after shooting the videos for the album. The album is a mixed bag, with Latin-influenced pop, Egyptian maksoum, Moroccan, Khaliji (lyrics), Lebanese, and a remake of a Turkish song (Trekni Rouh).

Laila Ghofran - Aktar Men Ay Wa't

The majority of Laila Ghofran's 2005 album was overshadowed greatly by her hit single Assahelhalak (Let Me Simplify it for You). However, you owe it to yourself to give this album a listen. As usual, Laila's album is made up of mostly Egyptian songs, but she also sang in the Rai style here. Eshkoun is a remake of a song from her homeland, Morocco, and works well with her unique vocals.

Hasna - Bamba

Moroccan singer Hasna's hit 2003 album was a tough act to follow. Therefore, when Bamba was released in 2005, it could not help being overshadowed. Shoufo Shoufo (Look, Look) was an infectious summer hit for Hasna, but the rest of the album was overlooked for the mostpart. Hasna sang in the Moroccan, Lebanese, and Egyptian Arabic dialects, and did it quite well in her unique style. Keep in mind, she may be Moroccan, but at this point in her career Lebanese producer Jean Saliba managed her musical choices, and it shows.
