Eida Al Menhali is one of the best voices in the UAE that has not tried to crossover to any other country. The man who came to the scene when he did a duet with Diana Haddad in 2002, is releasing albums of his own after and before his brush with mainstream Arab fame.
It's not like he needs the money, so his career is safe in the UAE, he has a busy day and busier weekend, but fame is good too. So here comes a mini album from this guy who sounds like on autotune, but he is really not on it. He sounds like an awesome computer without ever singing through a computer. For many in the Gulf this has been dubbed the album of the summer.
While I have not tried to go out of my way and follow Eida's career, I know he has been going well for himself and keeping it real too. To his credit he is playing in his comfort zone, he is not trying to be something he isn't. While his country man Hussein Al Jasmy is being doing a lot of great hits in all corners of Arabia Egypt, Morocco and Lebanon. While Al Jasmy is a real talent, he is no longer a local star which is both good and bad.
