4.0 out of 5 stars
Terrific introduction to this artist,
By Howard Roark "Kumar" (Salt Lake City, UT, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Talakik (Audio CD)
I am relative newcomer to Arabic music. I liked Putumayo's"Arabic Groove" at lot, and while I was searching Amazon for some of the names that I found in that CD, Amazon suggested this artist to me. I bought this CD and have been quite happy with it. Hakim's style of music is different from, say, Amr Diab's or Khaled's (what I've heard so far), so it took me a couple of listens for me to warm up to Hakim, but now I'm hooked. Hakim has a truly beautiful voice, and nothing captures it

Thumbs up to Egypts No.1 Folk singer!,
By Ismail Elshareef "ielshareef" (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Talakik (Audio CD)
Hakim's Mawaweels (ardent fluctuating vocal and ambient instrumental improvisations expressing intense longing and desire) are bound to make the hair on your arms rise. He is one of a kind with his traditional, folk style music. His uniqueness is what enables him to reach international audiences of different tongues and musical cultures.Hakim's music is the kind of music you hear at most bus stops and cabs in Egypt. His lyrics reflect people's state of mind while his music is typical folk. Other artists (i.e. Amr Diab, Mostafa Amar ... etc) are considered very Westernized in comparison to Hakim, who very much sticks to traditional style and instruments. Talakik is a great dance album (belly dancers' wet dream.) It will delight you with its very traditional (few Westernized) music and rich vocals.
