Editor's note

Amel Bent's soulful pop from Paris to North Africa

A voice that emerged from French television and grew into thoughtful, personal songs.

For a sense of her range, listen to 'Le Chant de Colombes' and then something like 'Je Voulais Juste Que Tu M'aimes.' They're both hers, but they land differently.

She brought something different to French pop from the start. 'Le Chant de Colombes' is a quiet ballad that stuck around, and her work with Charles Aznavour and Youssou N'Dour shows a reach beyond the usual pop circuit. The music has a soul feel, but you can hear her Algerian background in there too.

She got her break on 'Nouvelle Star' in 2004 and put out 'Raisonnable' that same year. Later albums like 'A 20 ans' had songs that became more personal, and she kept collaborating with different artists over the years.
