A Tunisian pop singer based in Egypt, and the first Tunisian artist ever to win a World Music Award.
Latifa bint Alaya El Arfaoui built her career from Tunisia into Egypt, becoming one of the best-selling singers in the Arab world despite recording primarily in Egyptian Arabic rather than her native Tunisian dialect.
Performing across Arabic, French, and English, she received the World Music Award for best-selling Middle Eastern artist in 2004, becoming the first Tunisian ever to win the honor.
