Ammar el Shiriey – Ya Halawa (1992)//عمار الشريعي – يا حلاوا

This song one of the instrumentals done by the blind keyboard and oud player called Ammar el Shiriey. He has so many funky instrumental interpretations of some Arabic legend singers like Oum Kalthoum, Fairouz, Abdel Halim Hafez. This song is an interpretation of the legendary singer Faried el Attrache and his song called ‘ya halawa’. It’s from his tribute cassette serie to him called ‘Ghany ya wahid 3’. I can’t seem to find the original of Faried el Attrache, but this vibe is extrodinary, check out some of his stuff on youtube, it could be a genre on itself. Thinking about doing a mix of only songs of his songs soon.

P.s. I discovered that the Amazing hiphop/R&B producer Timbaland used a sample from one of his songs for one of his hits in his early career, would you guys know which one?
