It is extremely common for TV presenters to ask ‘seasoned’ singers what they think of the potential and voices of others who are currently trying to make it in the world of Arab music! So it was no surprise when Nishan as part of the show ‘Taratata’ asked singer Asala this very question, her answer however surprised many!
She simply said that the best voice on the scene right no belongs to her! She then went on to say that this was not arrogance on her part; instead it was mere confidence in her vocal ability! Sorry to break it to you Asala but there is a fine line between arrogance and confidence, and being one who has stepped over this line many a time, that statement was extremely pompous!
Don’t get me wrong perhaps her voice is not only one of the best but the best voice on the scene right now but that is for us (the fans), the critics and fellow musicians to declare! Not Asala herself! As for whether or not Asala will be supporting her sister’s entrance into the world of music her answer was far from supportive. She said that she wished her sister (Amani) would have never made the decision to be a singer and that she would not be supporting her in any way!

some of her first newly released songs were not bad however Asala needs to stop giving any interview because any interview shows how shallow and stupid she can be when talking about anything or giving an opinion!!
simply put ... YES Asala is full of herself!
she is full of herself, but at least she can back it up unlike some others.
i see nothing wrong in her being honest about her voice and what she thinks of it.
if thats her opinion, then thats her opinion.
truthfully, i dont see whats wrong with asala's statement. at least she is honest and YES, she is the best voice by far in the musical scene. no other singer can match asala's voice and vocal abilities no matter how good they are. asala is very simple and honest, she is not fake like other singers who wait for compliments that they do not deserve.
First off I like Asalah..and she has an amazing voice...i love humble people not people that are shallow like the way she is acting...there are better singer and voices in music right now...and that can sing live so amazingly....THIS IS MY RANKING
1. NAWAL AL ZOGHBI
2. NAJWA KARAM
ASALAH FALLS AT #4 OR 5
THESE TWO CAN SING LIVE AND ON CD SO BEAUTIFULLY..
yah, i guess she was nice saying how she did not support her sister, whatever!
I agree with Asala. She does have the best voice now. Her voice is amazing. But i do think she has strong competitors such as Najwa Karam and Ruwaida Attieh!
Asala is so selfish and has a very antipathic personnality, so it doesn't suprise me that she would say this kind of thing. She may has a great voice, and I'm a fan of it, but listening what she says during interwiew about her is boshit. It's not about what she thinks but what people will think anyway.
egghh i hate asala !! SOOO MUCHH shez such a show offf sorry shez not the best !! there are manyyyy singers better than her. !! i dnt like her voice yes it powerful and in live its good but its not so calm and its sumtimes annoying !!
to jerry, sorry but nawal cant sing live.. she sounds like a man live ...and wtf u out najwa below her ? HAHAHA !
as 4 my favs singers and their good voices will be like najwa karam, nancy ajram and yara !!
I agree, that's so uncool. If you know you have a great voice, there really is no need to tell everyone on national television. Your confidence should show in the songs and albums you shell out to the public. This is why I wish celebs would just shut up and do their jobs.
Asala may have a great voice but she must realize that nobody likes to listen to an arrogant singer.
what about najwa karam, majda al rou,i, ruwaida 3a6eya.. they all have extroardinary voices..
Majida Al-Roumi is a much much better voice... and a classier character.
I think that assala has one of the best voices out there... shes an honest person... her voice is extraordinarily beautiful.
