Syrian singer Asalah Nasri revealed that she is currently working with Lebanese singer Fadel Shaker on a private duet that deals with them specifically. Fadel confirmed the plans for a duet but added that no specific has been chosen so far. 

 

According to the London based Elaph, Fadel stressed his admiration with Asalah's voice on numerous occasions. And on her part Asalah expressed her high regard for Fadel's voice and how she would greatly appreciate singing a duet with him. Asalah added that she finds Fadel's voice to be one of the best voices in the Arab world and felt it would be an unforgettable experience to sing with him. 

 

Asalah's new album features a collection of songs written and composed by prominent individuals in the music industry. Asalah Nasri, the daughter of the well-known singer, Mustafa Nasri, began her singing career at the age of nine focusing on national and children’ songs. Her quick rise to stardom dates from her early television appearances, the first of which was on the Lebanese TV program “Stars” produced by Jordanian Hasib Yousef. Further television appearances have made her a popular star all over the Arab World. 

 

Shaker is currently experiencing huge success after his latest release “Ya Ghaib” (Far Away) around the Arab world and abroad. He has proved to be a competent singer who climbed the ladder of fame in such a short time, with a voice that touches the hearts of those who listen to him.  

 

His popularity drove a number of devoted fans to create a website that featured news, latest events, photographs, and a personal email for the singer where people can contact him directly. The singer’s sudden rise in popularity drove a number of sponsors for festivals around the Arab world to request his appearance. –Albawaba.com
