Lebanese dancer Basima has filmed a music video for her second song “Ahib Dah Wala Dah”(I Love This And Not That), written by Malak Adel, composed by Muhammad Abed Al Munim and distributed by Basem Munir.
Filming took place in Cairo for three days under the director Kamba, their first collaboration together. The clip cost over US$75,000 to make.
According to the London daily Elaph, the events of the clip revolve around two young men who want to marry Basima, one Egyptian and the other Lebanese. Basima sets one condition for marriage – he must agree that she will continue dancing.
The producer of the clip, Suleiman Isamail, wanted the clip to be humorous and different from most clips that are shown on music satellite channels.
Basima was recently in Dubai to perform for an Easter celebration.
In June Basima will travel to Morocco to host a number of live concerts, and in July she will head to London to perform.
