Salma Rachid verhuist naar Egypte

Marokkaanse zangeres woont in Egypte

Salma Rachid, bekend van Arab Idol heeft Marokko verlaten voor een bestaan in Egypte. Sinds een aantal weken woont de 19 jarige zangeres daar en krijgt ze vaak bezoek van vriendin en winnares van Arab Idol 1, Carmen Soleiman. Met medekandidaat van Arab Idol, Ahmed Gamal heeft zij onlangs gegeten. Wat de reden is achter haar verhuizing heeft Salma niet duidelijk gemaakt. Vermoedelijk is zij verhuist om in Egypte journalistiek te studeren, iets waar zij altijd een grote passie voor heeft gehad. 

In het najaar kondigde Salma nog aan niet alleen te verhuizen gezien haar vader absoluut niet wil dat zijn dochter alleen in een land verblijft. Destijds waren haar plannen om journalistiek te studeren in Marokko of in Duitsland, waar zij familie heeft. Het lijkt erop dat zij heeft gekozen voor Egypt ondanks de politieke onrust. Of zij daar met familie verblijft is onduidelijk.

Remix: Arab Idol Mohammed, Ahmed and Farrah

Remix Ah Ya Eini - Mafish Mara

I know its a while since Arab Idol was on tv. I loved it and cant wait till the next season. On the show I learned so many new songs. My love for arabic music is sooooo big. Mohammed Assaf, Ahmed Gamal and Farrah Youssef performed on the last episode a remix of Sherine and Loai. 
Mafish Mara is a song of Sherine. And Loai sang the hitsong Ah Ya Eini. 
The remix is so good. The original song of Sherine is kind of poprock arabic but the Arab Idol crew made it sound classic and pop. Loai's song Ah Ya Eini is not mixed so much cause its already good. Lets see what the three finalists did. By the way it was playbacked. 

You can see that Assaf cant playback perfectly. I dont mind, he still has a great voice.

Original song Mafish Mara - Sherine
A different Sherine! Almost like a rockstar. If you listen good you hear the beat of Destiny's child Lose my breath.



Original song Ah Ya Eini - Loai
Beautiful simple clip. I like the dance moves

Ahmed Gamal


Ahmed Gamal




Ahmed is representing Egypt at Arab Idol. He is doing it very great. He's funny, knows what kind of songs he should sing and he's motivated. I love that he is calm and sings hard songs with such class. Ahmed is a sound to remember forever.


His best performance was 'Sawwah' from 
legend and fellow Egyptian Abdel Halim Hafez.I listen this song 10 times a day. I am addicted to Ahmeds version of the song


Ahmed sang this song 10 days before the second revolution in Egypt (30th of June). This song makes me cry. He describes Egypt and the love for it. The song was original from Abdelhalim Hafez.









With Farrah Yousef from Syria he did a mash up remix. The songs that were mixed were; Elli Tmanetoh - Nawal el Zoghbi and Habibi Ya Nour El Ain - Amr Diab. The remix was amazing!!! On YouTube there are millions of views for this clip. Worth it !
Ahmed did an amazing job.


The reason why...

The reason why I love Arab Idol so much?

Its because unite all the Arabic countries. Even there is war and so much drama in the Middle East. Arab Idol keeps us together. In the music we connect, the candidats are young and full of joy. Abdelkarim Hamdan (Syria) and Mohamed Assaf (Palestina) are the candidats that bring joy to their countries. Arab Idol is not a political game; its all about the music and the happiness in it.
