Hehsam Abbas and The New Old School



What you might not know about Hesham Abbas, is this: He was the first Arab singer to have a global song...that's Nari Nari. A song that explodes everywhere and it was a good song in terms of music and in terms of music video and Indian cast. That song came right as the cusp of the internet age, and thus it was carried to the world via links, not tapes.

But before then he had another cool song Ya Leelay Ya Leelay, it was a pleasant surprise in Arab pop. But Hesham is not all pop and funk, he can do those mean blues and romance that can break your hears.

There was a time when he was the dude to fear, but all that changed and Hesham has been dethroned due to his inability to find new material that sticks. He came close in 2006 with Feeno Thus Hesham will be a member of the new old school
