Arabic Audio for Umm Kulthum Songs

Listen to 100s of immortal songs by Egyptian singer Umm Kulthum

She was referred to as the Lady by Charles de Gaulle and is regarded as the Incomparable Voice by Maria Callas

Umm Kulthum is remembered in Egypt, the Middle East, and the Arab world as one of the greatest singers and musicians to have ever lived

It is difficult to accurately measure her vocal range at its peak, as most of her songs were recorded live, and she was careful not to strain her voice due to the extended length of her songs. Even today, she has retained a near-mythical status among young Egyptians. She is also notably popular in Israel among Jews (of Mizrahi/Arab background) and Arabs alike

While she was known to have touched many different artists, she also touched the lives of millions of her listeners and fans. Her performances outputted raw emotion and even political rhetoric.

She was incredibly influential and spoke about politics through her music. An example of this is seen in her music performed after World War II. The themes at the surface were about love yet with deeper interpretation of the lyrics as seen in the song Salue Qalbi, it questions political motives in times of political tension

Umm Kulthum's political rhetoric in her music is still influential today, not only in Egypt, but in many other middle eastern countries and even globally
