Review

Many people think Egyptian pop is something you hear through tinny speakers in crowded marketplaces, but with N'ssi N'ssi, Cheb Khaled creates highly polished danceable tracks. Many tunes on this disc are produced by Don Was, which attests to Khaled's international renown. ~ Tim Sheridan, All Music Guide
