Nicole Saba is a babe with Agenda

Lebanese singer turned actress has all a female Arab singer needs, the good looks, and the strong voice that keeps listeners enchanted. Nicole has come a long way since her start with the all girl band 4 Cats. She is now a huge star in Egypt and many movie producers seek her as her star power can make the difference from a flop into a hit. What I like about Nicole that she is the activist type. Yes, she makes a lot of average movies, and whatever songs, but in her music videos and in some of her lyrics she is all about social change, the kind that rocks the boat.

Take for example, she has at least 3 hit songs that make the plight of women both real and sexy. She makes music videos where she says, "It's up to me", and then she makes another about the guy she fancies to marry, but cheesy it's as she tells us the guy will first love her and then make her like a trophy and not treat her right. Yes some of her dresses are a bit too much for a Middle Eastern audience, but that might be just the point. Many female singers show their skin, but none does it with an agenda as Nicole does. Here is a list of her best songs that tackle social issues very few mainstream artists care to promote. Weather Nicole is right or wrong, she defiantly stir the pot and brings those casues to the attention of the Arab masses.
