Stanley Donwood has compared writing for ENRICO MACIAS’s new album to that on ‘Hommage Cheikh Raymond (CD2)’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. It’s natural for ENRICO MACIAS to take a stab at ‘Istikhber mode Ire’ considering her long-professed love for Azymuth. There is so much to love about ENRICO MACIAS, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. It is very deep stuff - very exciting
Such hits like Ye bellare will leave you hooked. Haouzi Inqleb Dhi stands out to me for its audacious melody and sheer beauty. Isthikhber Dhn had me crying as I was able to relate so well. Inqleb Dhol - Moda is the song that really did it for me. Waine enbato is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after Hommage Cheikh Raymond (CD2) have ended. Istikhber Rahaou is a song to enjoy for years to come. There is perfect mix of music in Valse Billah ya hamam. Once you hear Quatrains wat’ habin, you will listen to it over and over. Opening track Final - Bettar ouel ou shows the best of ENRICO MACIAS. Koum Tar (feat. Cheb Mami) is one of the more up-tempo songs on Hommage Cheikh Raymond (CD2).
