Cheb Khaled is one of the greatest arab singer. He makes a wonderful pair with Dianna Haddad, hope he would produce more quality songs with her. The quality with which he has successfully mixed the eastern and western music is a true feat. And his concert with Faudel and Raschid was also very good. I think he can produce more good songs by collaborating with other arab artists. Wish him best of luck with my prayers and wish to see him on the top of charts everywhere.
