ALBAWABA - Assala and Ahlam's reactions are still trending on social media as they weigh in on the debate around the similarities in melody between their songs "You Ask Me" and "The Voice of the Ego," which began a few days ago.
To be more specific, trailblazers on social media uploaded a video of Assala addressing a question on her song "The Chair." Ahlam had just commented on the tape, stating that she wished to rename the song "Sofa."
Since Ahlam, whom she called "the Queen," had only one chair, Assala came up with a new name.
Those who followed Ahlam's account thought she was trying to subtly draw attention to the similarities between her song and Assala's before the video ever came out.
In addition to paying a sum for the advertising campaign she presented to her with her recent comments about the album and the confusion she caused via X, Ahlam also asked Assala to concentrate on her singing segment at yesterday's "Warda Night" concert at Jeddah's Abadi Al-Jawhar Theater.
"You don't have a party? Ahlam tweeted, "This is the beginning of my existence." Just pay attention to the celebration; I'll take care of the rest. He should urge Fayek Al-Ghali, the most prominent advertiser for both your record and your head, to stop interfering with my life's sound because he listens to too much music. "You want to pay me, too?" I said, My sidekick.
Earlier, Ahlam addressed a follower's accusations that she had attacked Assala. The Syrian diva would reply to his every Gulf dialect album release with an accentuated version of her own language, in which she would question when she had attacked Assala and insist that the only connection between their songs was the music.
After gushing over her new album, Ahlam went on to remark, "But there are many young people like you, my heart." She went on to express that she loves her deeply and was among the first to offer her congratulations.
Following Ahlam's re-publication of a post, trailblazers in the realm of social media began to speculate that a feud would break out between Assala and herself.
There is no sound in the cosmos save silence, she wrote. My name is patience, and I hold the key. Some may see the Emirati singer's statement as a suggestion that she sang the tune before Assala did for the Saudi artist Nasser Al-Saleh, although she used different lyrics.
