Cheb Nasro has long been associated with the beginnings of the rai musical revolution in North Africa. Now living in America, he has remained relatively unknown despite the acquaintance of the rest of the world with his music. Nasro notes that his newest album is the realization of a 14-year dream of producing a worldwide CD. While the album pays tribute to rai singer Cheb Hasni, it is dedicated to his family (including an uncle who bought him his first darbuka).
One of the best numbers on the album – and the disc's opener – is dedicated to, and named for, his young daughter, Fatima. It's a disco rendition that elicits movement and an upbeat frame of mind.
For the Gypsy Kings fan, there's “ Baghi Nenssak.” His North Afro-Cuban “Mon Amour ” works quite well. Reggae influences are felt in “Kifeche Enti” and “C'est Pas Le Peine.”
