The History of Arabic Power Vocals
If her upcoming performance is anything to go by, it’s a testament to her legendary status in the worldwide music industry. The Lebanese icon has spent decades deliberately building a unique style that relies on nothing but her loud, booming voice and deeply lyrical, passionate lyrics. She is known for adding a modern and contemporary spin to traditional Lebanese folk music, so that the rich cultural history of her own nation is being kept alive and respected by younger, current generations.
With a large chart-topping repertoire consisting of great regional favourites, she has earned a permanent, irrefutable spot in the pantheon of Arabic music heroes. Huge classic favourites like ‘Yelaan Elboaad,’ the perfectly rhythmic ‘Hayda Haki,’ the sad ‘Khallini Shoufak’ and the incredibly cheerful ‘Maloun Abu Eleshq’ will be sung along to by concertgoers. Each of these songs represents a different phase in her incredible career and guarantees a setlist spanning many decades of sheer musical mastery.
