Rhany Kabbadj

Rhany Kabbadj(ou Ghani Kabaj) est Né, en 1972, à Marrakech de père marocain et de mère franco-algérienne.Très jeune, il quitte le Maroc pour s’installer en Tunisie où il ne tarde pas a confirmer son talent d’artiste. Au Maroc Rhany est déjà une star, et ses fréquentes apparitions à la télévision tunisienne et marocaine, son concert à la coupole d’El Menzeh lui ont permis de côtoyer les plus grandes personnalités de la chanson arabe : Warda, Mami, Khaled (un duo qui lui valut du succès.)...Début 97 Rhany s’envole pour Paris et enregistre son album qu’il terminera à Los Angeles. Entouré de musiciens talentueux, le disque verra le jour en 98. Après la sortie d’un best of en 99 au Maroc, de nombreux concerts ont lieu sur les plus grandes scènes parisiennes dont Bercy. L’année 2000 arrive et sera consacrée a la création de son nouvel album.Passionné par la musique latine, Rhany est parvenu après des années de travail et de recherche a unir culture ensoleillée et rythmes endiablés. L'enregistrement aura lieu à Cuba au studio Egrem répute pour ses productions et artistes légendaires (Compay Segundo, Ibrahim Ferrer, Buenaventura...). Son tempérament joyeux et chaleureux est à l'image de sa musique, un mélange de salsa et de rythmes orientaux. http://www.hibamusic.com/Maroc/cheb-rhany-kabbadj/cheb-rhany-kabbadj-155.htm

Hoda Haddad

Hoda is the sister of Fairouz. However, her participation in the Rahbani projects since the early 1960s is due to her talent and not to her family relationship to Fairouz. When Fairouz started to become a major star in Lebanon and in the Middle East in the 1950s, Hoda Haddad was a child. It was not until the start of the Baalbeck International Festivals that Hoda appeared on the scene.
While Hoda had a sweet voice, it lacked the power and charisma of Fairouz's presence on the stage and Fairouz's strong vocals. In the Rahbani's major productions, Hoda played the role of the innocent teenager in love with the charming fellow in the village, or the pretty villager who does a comic part. However, this does not discount Hoda's talents as a singer and a performer. It is her long association with Fairouz that paradoxically prevented her from developing a shining solo career.
Hoda played in every Fairouz major production. She appears in all three Fairouz movies (Bint al Hares, Baya al Khwatem, and Safarbarlek). She also participated in Fairouz's shows in and outside Lebanon. Hoda had her own TV series in which she plays the principal heroine (Min Yawm la Yawm). She also sings the theme song of the series that was very popular in Lebanon in 1971.
Currently Hoda is still playing a major role in the Rahbani's projects, most recently in "Socrate" by Mansour Rahbani. Hoda has at least 50 own songs (all by the Rahbanis), but does not have any album under her name. You may find her songs throughout Fairuz's large repertoire.
