Hal brought me here. She has a beautiful voice. I like that I don't necessarily understand every word she sings. It allows me to focus on the emotion and melody of what Yasmine is singing.
I love her music, I might not understand it but as a Mexican-American man this just speaks to the power of music. plus it doesn't hurt for her to be so beautiful.
very interesting person, only this short interview format is such a shame, Ms. Hamdan gets cut off by the time limit, just as she is warming up. A nice snippet, but I wish she could have been allowed to elaborate.
Gee, she is proud of her race and her culture! GOOD FOR HER! She MUST be racist! If she were a white American woman asked to sing in another language and wouldn't she would be labeled a bigot and racist.
Is Hamdan just a pretty woman, using her feminine charm... or is there anything else to her? What's the substance, if there is any, to the music-songs she makes? She tried to explain something around this point but I don't get it or she can't explain it. Sure she is shapely and cute; as to her music I don't see or hear anything of substance in in it.
Seriously?! Listen to Nediya or Hal just for starters, both are hypnotic and haunting and beautiful. Her voice is really interesting too. From the day I heard her I couldn't get her music out of my head.
No substance? Seriously? Have you listened to her song "ballad"? There's a version with subtitles, she has very real substance and seems to be super cool as well.
The way your discourse revolves around her being "cute" is just beyond me, it only says so much about how sexist and uncultured you are. No one's known how to bring us young Lebanese people this close to our mother-tongue, knowing that we struggle not only to keep up with all these colonial languages that have been imposed on us, but also to be taken seriously by elderlies who can't shut up about how our generation is too "westernized". They romanticize old times to the point where Arabic has almost become this unreachable, unmodifiable thing. Yasmine dared to change that, she dared to reclaim her mother tongue and use it as she pleases. Making Arabic underground music isn't even about building bridges with the west; what Yasmine did here is redefine "world music" and she excelled at it. Your argument is based on absolutely nothing but sexism. What a loser.
