Malak

I like Dhafer's voice and this album is a good one, however i'm just chilling to it in the car when he starts screeching sometimes it seems for the sake of proving how long he can hold a note or rather screech. This style is fine and forms part of his music and his range is vast but this music at its best does more than impress with noise - it touches the soul and make you think - its hard to think if someone is screeching at you. Hopefully he will indulge the melody and north african rythnm of his music a bit more rather than the castrato like catta walling. It not the screaming sytle, this in moderation enhances the feels such as in gypsy kings music it the high pitch of it !!

OH DHAFER YOUSSEF....MalakThis man takes you to another place... I suggest you listen in a cold morning, then you need a coffee...and something sweet to make sure you sit down and ENJOY Malak. Then you want more of his other stuff... Happy Listening!
