Julia Boutros is one of the most talented ladies of Arabic music, she is Lebanese and whenever the moment calls, you find her come to your aid with her music and vocals. But also there is that charm shehas built throught the years, the mystery of not talking too much to the media.
She cares about Lebanon and the larger Arab world...and so she makes that Arabic music as it used to be made decades ago, live orchestra, real band and real music, not a computer with a monkey in charge. More than a year ago, in the process of recording her album, booked the casino of Lebanon and got her show filmed on DVD in a concert rich in every sense of the word.
Check out this very mature song of hers that plays like a jazz song where the orchestra is lead by an Austrian, but the music here is universal so it all add up. Julia managed in the 2 decades career of hers to get many Lebanese who rarely agree on anything to gather and enjoy a rich experience.
Troubled British singer found dead in her London apartment
Amy Winehouse has been found dead at her home in London. The Back To Black singer was found at the property by emergency services at 3.54pm. Her death is being treated as 'unexplained' by police. Medics were unable to help the singer as they arrived to the scene.
In a statement to the Daily Mail, the Metropolitan police said "police were called by London Ambulance Service to an address in Camden Square NW1 shortly before 16.05 hrs today, Saturday 23 July, following reports of a woman found deceased. On arrival officers found the body of a 27-year-old female who was pronounced dead at the scene."
News of Winehouse's passing comes just weeks after she gave a disappointing performance in Serbia in June in which she staggered around the stage and could barely sing the words to her own songs. It was marketed as Winehouse comeback tour. The singer's team canned the rest of the European tour due to the unforeseen troubles. Attendees of the concert were disappointed and refunded their money.
As it seemed Amy was getting her life back on track, making progress and getting gigs as she was planning a comeback, but that was botched in Serbia last month. Many observers spoke of media pressure and creating a hostile living environmental for this once talented artist that added to her struggle with substance abuse.
Two ambulance crews arrived at the scene within five minutes and a paramedic on a bicycle also attended, according to a spokeswoman. But not much help was provided as it was too late to so anything to save Amy.
'On arrival officers found the body of a 27-year-old female who was pronounced dead at the scene. 'Inquiries continue into the circumstances of the death. At this early stage it is being treated as unexplained.’
Amy’s father Mitch might not be aware of his daughter’s death as Sky News have confirmed that he is currently on a plane to New York to take part in a Jazz festival. When the US got to meet Amy it was year 2007 and the song "Rehab" hit it big out here. Her style was an edgy reinvention of the 1950s female singers.
This makes one tragic death for a starlet that showed so many talent and all of sudden she has developed personal struggle with substance abuse. She surely will be missed by her fans and even those media talking heads who came hard on her as she fumbled through her addiction. This is one young women that has crossed the racial aisle and performed songs that for long has been exclusive for American artists. She came form London, singing those American songs and making it big on the world stage.
Liberal Saudi publication Elaph does great reporting. When they are not doing that, they are obsessed with sex and ladies. This seems to be a themes of Saudi Liberals, a way of telling the extremists in their country who tend to fear women that we will be doing the opposite. I do not know how things are in Saudi Arabia, but I feel censorship does wonders on most sites.
I am a fan of Elaph, their timely coverage of politics, and music is second to none. But to a certain degree they go over the top with sex stories and ladies. Take fro example their latest story on the women groups that are enlisted to rally for Putin. Really? That's the one video you managed to upload to your YouTube channel? On the same day Somalia was declared in famine?
I mean all healthy males like women, but here from what I see, women follow women who are trend setters in fashion, style and entertainment. Men on the other hand, follow the same women if they were in GQ, Details, or Esquire! Those are the very fine men. But if you sink to the level of Playboy and Hustler, then there is a problem.
Beautiful women have every right to do whatever pictures they like to publish, I also have the right to reject them if they go over the top on this mainstream publication that is meant to be real by everyone and all ages.

When producers decided to make a movie about the Syrian diva Asmahan, they wanted a voice that can be compared to this women of great voice, class and mystery. Luckily for those producers, they found this voice in Waad El Bihiri. She was given the title "Asmahan Al Jeel" in reference to the generation. Waad did not appear in the movie, only her voice. The actress that played Asmahan is none other than Sulaf Fawakhrjy-- a suck up to the Syrian regime.
Many of those who followed the show, thought they were hearing the voice of Asmahan and not Waad.
Waad took part of the Star Academy season 2 in 2004 and was a finalist on the show, she started singing when she was at the tender age of four. She is a Syrian who lives in the United Arab Emirates with her family. She has took part of concerts in many venues, including in Egypt, Libya and Morocco.
She has collaborated with the house of Rahbany on a project. And she has songs in Egyptian and Gulf dialects. Last song of hers was a duet with Egyptian composer turned singer Mohammad Dia
You know an Arab star is pregnant when they record the music of their album, make tons of media appearances, and book as many concerts as they can. That's the story of Mai Selim, the Jordanian singer turned actress. Mai has a great energy and unlike many Arab ladies of pop she seems like a real person. She does not strike me as a fake.
She has officially taken a break from her career to take care of her body and her soon to be baby. But that does not stop her channel from releasing older footage of hers. Mai has also appeared on Star Academy and performed with the students. She will also be sen this Ramadan on TV as an actress.
She is a mellow romantic song, a very apologetic tone. Just check out how much the ladies in the studio look impressed. This is an Elissa territory for sure, but Mai is not on a stranger's land.
Nesma Mahgoub, the title winner of Star Academy Season 8 arrived home for quite the great homecoming at the Cairo Airport. There were droves of fans, journalists and onlookers waiting for her at the airport.
Nesma arrived Egypt at 6 PM and there was a bash for this lady with the most amazing voice, a young women can wish for. For the nexty feww weeks you will sure find a lot of interviews and media appearances with Nesma.
And once all this is over with, she will find a talent manger and a production company who would be willing to sponsor her and turn her fame into a commercial success. We know that she has the voice for it, so will all that register with the listeners and those who actually buy CDs?

The honor of the first singer from Kuwait and from the Arab gulf to have a live concert in Palestine goes to the Kuwait singer with a hear of gold and a million dollar smile Abdallah Rowaished. Kuwait composer and singer accepted an invitation from President Mahmoud Abbas and went to the Weest Bank city of Nablus accompanied by his band and a media delegation.
I have always been a fan of this seasoned Arab singer that has a reputation in the entertainment circles of being both kind and inventive. His style of romantic songs is hard to capture by words, his gift with the oud is hard to find nowadays. And he took all that to Palestine and lit up the night.
This is a very kind gesture from this very proud singer from Kuwaiti singer, to visit Palestine and perform in Al Najjah University where thousands of Palestinians who appreciate his music and his style turned out for the concert. For the first time in more than 20 years, the flags of Kuwait were carried in pride in the heart of a Palestinian city with passion.
While Abdallah Rowaished entertained the masses, he toured around and got to know Palestine, he of course met with the officials in charge of tour and visited with President Abbas whom he sang for during the concert. Politics aside, this is one of those rare moments where a star that gains little from a concert goes, performs and benefits the place he visits. I hope that such visits continue and both parties feel warm toward each other.
Local artist Nasir Al Asmar opened for Mr. Rowaished by performing local favorites form the folklore.
Zeezee Adel the Egyptian pop singer that has an exotic look and a fashionable style came a long way from second season of Star Academy. Since then she has released two albums generating good sales and some media buzz. Then came two singles in love of Egypt that took her career into a good direction.
then last month it was revealed that will joining the cast of Baraska "Brasca براكسا ", an Egyptian play about a Greek women who entered the world of politics where alpha males dominate. The play has been rehearsing for some weeks now. But unfortunately, the play was delayed due to the proximate to the theater to Tahir Square--where most of those protests anc clashes take place.
Needless to say Zeeze is unhappy about this delay as she was excited for this new show that will challenge her on more than one level. Egyptian singer/actress Boshra performed this role in the first play, but opted out due to her many commitment. We glad we have we have this first look picture of Zeezee in character.
Mohamed Eltookhy is a lovable young man from Egypt who has been making the media rounds lately after the release of his single which was filmed into a music video (3Ashan Arta7). A pop romance album with a lot of house mix for the dancer in you.
Pyramedia, the Egyptian company of Richard Hajj is putting out the album, but as of now we have a promo of that album. It seems like a light pop album where the fashionable star tries own new songs to test his vocals and his ability to entertain.
Mohamed has a lot of young Listeners who would purchase his album of course, but there are way too many pop stars singing for the same people and worse, singing the same songs. It's really hard to stand out in the mix.
The album to be released on July 7th with 8 tracks that include some Latin music, the young singer has released a pro Egypt song in the wake of the revolution in that country about rebuilding that country.
Najwa Karam is the next Najwa Karam, but if you want a newer version of this Lebanese singer with a hint of Syrian Rouida Attiah, then you need to check out Sara Farah. Sara is Syrian, something millions are proud of. She already sang with Warda, the Algerian diva.
She has the vocals, and the confidence to shine, I am very impressed with the voice quality of this young woman. I have blogged about her once before, but this time when I saw her performance with her home boy Nassif Zaytoun, I was dully impressed. She reminds of great performers in the 70s and the 80 who took this Syrian/Lebanese singing style to new lands.
As far as rumors are concerned, Sara seems to get along with everyone and as she hangs a bit more on the set of Star Academy, I am pretty sure she might be the title winner if they judged by voice quality, stardom and not politics. I hope she doe snot go on and try to do a sexy makeover instead of worrying about making great music.
She is a little girl from a tiny country next to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain made waves with her skills singing in the Arab Got Talent show, everyone was talking about this girl, and she was quite good in her performance of old songs. While Bahrain was the home for Michael Jackson for few months in 2006, 2007
But now she is making her own songs, in an album along stars who have been singing for decades, they got one song. But Hala got three songs on the same album and sales of the album skyrocketed. The YouTube link to her segment has more than 8 million viewers so far. Now that makes sense why a mega music company like Platinum Records would sign her up for their children album.
She is the cutest girl you will see in a long time, and she did well singing oldies by Fayrouz. She might have some acting in her future, but as for now she seems to be happy with her singing career and celebrity status.
While she did not win the title for the season in which she took part, she won the hearts of the fans including the children and their parents, here is the link to her song, "My Dad Got Paid".

When you are are B, C List singer in Egypt, you have no trouble finding gigs at weddings and private parties, all you need is a music video and an agent. But since not all music videos are created equally, a music video for the motherland goes a long way.
There are way too many TV stations who would finance a project that involves Egypt, you might not make money as a singer, but you will get fee advertisement. It will be you in every Egyptian home, and give you some name recognition. Here comes half a dozen of those singers who either love Egypt too much, just want to make a quick buck or bit of both.
Does this song sound tired? you bet...it does not sound that original. Not many care though, the song will get some air time.

You won't see naked people or anything close to that. But that's what come to mind when you see Ramy Ayach and Maya Diab perform this song together. She is married and refuses to do films in Egypt where she would be required to show some skin or behave like prostituted do. She respects herself, give her that.
Whenever he gets board Ramy Ayach colors his hair and makes a new look in his effort to appeal to younger and younger people, even though he has been singing since the mid 90s. He is a great pop singer who makes some of the best songs around, but that does not mean he can always get his way.
Nab2a Sawa, to stay (to be) together is the title of their new duet that was met with a lot of buzz, that both artists decided to shot a music video for this song that picked up some attention. They already filmed the music video, after their MTV appearance where the performed this song. I know that's part of the act and getting people excited. But I think to me, they seem like they are trying too hard to appeal to everyone and anyone with this sex grade chemistry they have--parametrically Ramy.
Having said, this is a great song and both singers have done well vocally speaking. Both singers benefit from it one gets their name out there and the other expands his fan base.

He is got the voice that heartbroken guys and girls love to listen to when they are feeling the blues. He is the voice for those feeling lonely and think they are all left alone. Along comes Rabih with his songs to cure those hearts.
Last music vidoe of his, the girl of his dreams abandoned him and went for the rich dude. Now he comes back with a different breakup story. This time there is a kid involved in his breakup story. Cheating is horrible, cheating with your best friend is a nightmare.
He is doing a lot more acting now, and has a better sense of style. I am loving the Syrian singers going mainstream. They bring a lot more flavor into the world of Arabic songs lyrics and their sad tone is hard to replicate. When you have had it enough with meaningless pop songs, tune in to Rabih El Asmar

Slain Egyptian fashion designer Mohammad Dagher continues to enrich Arab fashion with his impressive fashionable designs. MEMA Music Award took place on June 16th and gave so many awards to Arab and Egyptian entertainers. This is like one version of the American Music Award. Those singers might not be selling records right now, but no one can stop them from having a great time and parading their latest fashion.
Egyptian actress Lucy wore the dress for the award, but also Moroccan singer Jannat wore the same dress two weeks earlier for a wedding function for daughter of an Egyptian celebrity who led a march in support to Mubarak. Dagher had many fans among celebrities in his country and his work by many accounts is nothing short of stylish and chic.
While I love the design of the dress, I will let you decide who wore it best.

Referring to a 2010 TIME poll which reported that 62 percent of Americans claim to have never met a Muslim, he said: "This left me wondering: What about those Americans that do know a Muslim? How can can they effectively respond to this climate of fear and hostility towards Muslims?"
This needs no comment, as the short videos speaks volumes of those voices of hate in America and else where who in their quest to be relevant have picked a fight of Muslims in America. They will say, we did not chose this fight, those Muslims did! And this won;t be the last or the first lie those voice will use while they are hiding behind a flag.
My question who benefits from all this hate? If those voices of incitement win, America loses.
Nothing stops a good party from happening in Lebanon, and certainly no event is large enough so overshadow the Murexdor Awards in Lebanon. In the Ambassadors Hall in Lebanon Casino, the Arab stars had a busy evening in the company of the media, their loved ones and their rivals.
The awards for this year were similar to the one from the previous name and pretty much the same names repeated itself. Wael Kfoury (what did he do this year so special?) Cyrine Abelnor (awesome, but nothing outstanding in 2010), Haifa Wahbe, (it's not an award ceremony if she was missing) Nancy Ajram (she deserves all the best) The show is produced by Lebanon's MTV and broadcasted live OMG! just like they do at the OSCARS!
Some of the evening performances varied, Gassan Salibia "Oh, the people of the land يا أهل الارض", Mirna Shaker "the mask has fallen سقط القناع", Tony Hana, the legendary singer "The Moon's Shadow طل القمر" Sara Al Hany, the young Lebanese singer with a solid voice "Those with your good looks يللي بجمالك" then the Four Knights performed "تعلى وتتعمَّر يا دار May Home be strong" then all those performers joined in the stage for the classic song, O Write your name my homeland بكتب اسمك يا بلادي so it seems the Arab revolutions have influenced the lineup and the mode at the award ceremony.
Late Yehya was given an ward for his work and his tragic passing, Cyrine Abdelnour won the best Lebanese actress award for her role on "Sara" TV drama. Best Lebanese singer went to Nancy Ajram who dedicated the song to her awesome husband. Carole Samahe won the best music video for her Khalik Behalik dramatic performance. Nancy Ajram music video Shiekh Al Shabab also win the same prize. Best Lebanese song award went to Wael Kfoury, and best Arabic song went to Haifa Wahbe for her Yama Layaly.
Egyptian singer Sheiren won the best Arab singer award and dedicated the song to the Egyptian revolution.

ملاحظات على هامش الحفل غادر الفنان راغب علامة والفنانة نانسي عجرم بعد وقت قليل من تسلًّمهما جوائزهما.

سيرين عبدالنور تستذكر يوسف الخال، وهو الذي كان على خلاف مع لجنة الموريكس، ومنعهم من ذكر إسمه أو ترشيحه لنيل جائزة منهم.
بدا التأثر على الفنانة، هيفاء وهبي، عندما قدَّمت مواطنتها نانسي عجرم وصلتها الغنائيَّة.
So this Egyptian entertain decides to wear the Hijab and go on TV to talk about it. I think choosing the Hijab, the Islamic head cover that most women wear. This now retired entertainer goes on a media blitz to talk about her new found religion and spirituality.
I have yet to know who she is, now she is talking about other Arab celebrities who are among her friends. Linda Fahmy is this celebrity and there she goes talking about wanting to be a better person.
I am sure some people won't be happy with her going to talk about Islam and quoting various stories, but I must say, if you allow naked dancers on TV to tell you how to live your life, why not Linda now tell you her spiel? I do not like "holier than though attitude", but this is a bit entertaining.

Omar Kamel works as a writer, a musician, a video director, graphic designer, and photographer. He is a powerhouse when it comes to entertainment, he can do it all and he does it all so well.
Omar is now preparing to release his first album of Arabic songs, provisionally titled ‘Mamnou3 El Initizar’. The tracklist so far includes the tracks ‘Shafshaq’, ‘El Wa7sh El Motamadin’, ‘Be3eed’, ‘Ghali’, ‘Tadrib’, and a few other tracks :)
Previous to this, Omar has released Shabaka, Egypt’s first electronic music album - created with Yanni Giovannos, as well as SunDance & Moonrise - two albums of dancy fusion instrumentals co-produced by Keti Sharif. Omar has also released two online collections - the freely downloadable electronic album titled “A Fish Called Valis” (under the name The Pink Beam Consortium) and “SeptiC”, and album of English Rock/Pop/Alternative tracks (under the bandname GoldFish Euphoria).
Omar has done work in social awareness and is also the owner and developer of Egypt Art Link (at http://www.egyptartlink.com) a website designed to serve as a hub for Egyptian artists and artists working with or interested in Egyptian artists. He is currently working on various musical projects as well as developing scripts for television & cinema productions.
Omar is an intellectual too, he cares and watches over his beloved Egypt. He is there to make entertainment smarter, and more appealing and he can do that with his multi-talents
Jordanian native multi-talented entertainer Mais Hamdan has a rare gift, she can sing and do that very well, but she has started her career as a comics, making fun of Arab celebrities, then acting in some TV dramas, and then comes the must do talk show hosting gig that took her far.
But in the last few years, she started recording and releasing singles that tend to get played on the radio. Her sister Mai Sleim already sings and acts, so Mais is no stranger to the business. I know she is a fun charming person that can entertain anyone who speaks Arabic of any age and of any gender.
I do realize that that some of her talk shows have offended some people like last Ramadan in 100 Missa, she alienated some Egyptians. But that's bridge under the water, she is back filming shows and being Mais. She already released a single last month, and has two upcoming shows for Ramadan. So get to know Mais Hamdan or turn off your TV set.
