Ragheb won’t be singing with Haifa
January 8, 2010 1:10 am Stars NewsThe famous Lebanese superstar Ragheb Alama denied what has been said that he will be participating in a new song with his colleague famous Lebanese artist Haifa Wahby. Alameh clears out not making a duet song with Wehbe by saying: “Haifa is a famous artist who is also a friend of his, and when he thinks of a duet song together the project is possible.”
He adds that “they can draw a love story between a guy and a flirty girl, but the problem that stands in the way is that Haifa is part of “Rotana” and that would make the idea of a duet impossible.”
The famous superstar points out that there is great chaos in the art and music field after the introduction of new technology that with special effects can alter a person’s voice and make them sound as if they can sing. He said that individuals who use these technologies are considered to have “voice plastic surgeries” going on inside the studios.
He also said that production companies in the Arab world are at their worse stages and that will have a negative effect on the production of any art work, because the level of music production is getting worse.
As for an artist show business age and whether an artist should set a date for retirement, Alameh said that “he tried most of his life to focus on the next step and doesn’t occupy his thoughts with what will come afterward.” He stated that he doesn’t know for sure whether he wants to continue singing or if he ever decides to retire, but for the time being he wants to only focus on his next album.
