Have you heard of a young singer called Hasna Zulagh?
Hasna is a Moroccan singer who's just getting started.
She's released her debut album this year and is working on music video's for some of her songs.
Hasna won first place in the Moroccan talent show 'Studio 2M' in 2007 and started working on her career since.
Right now, she's got her first video clip (for her song 'Habetni La') airing on some music channels. Have you seen it?

What do you think of Hasna and her style? It's worth mentioning that Hasna claims that she's been hugely influenced by Najat Al Saghira and Aziza Jalal.

She got a new nose, and with it –apparently- came a new sassy attitude! Asala recently appeared on a show where she seemed like she was just on the attack, dicing Amr Diab and Nancy Ajram! Asala plainly accused Nancy of buying her ‘Music Award’ because she claims that if the likes of Kathem El Saher didn’t get it then there must be foul play! Funny thing is we, all know that Asala had her eyes on that ‘Music Award’ so could professional jealousy have anything to do with this accusation?!

MBC recently welcomed Gokhan Tepe (Iyad) and Aydan Kaya (Shaheera) on the show Kalam Nawaem. It was a very interesting episode, both Gokhan and Aydan are singers and have their own albums.

It was very nice, and she said that she loved the song so she decided to sing it in Turkish and have it in her album, she also spoke about her relationship with Kivanc (Mohannad from Noor) and said that she and Kivanc were friends ever since school days and still meet with each other and stay in touch.
