Sofiane Saidi is the last follower of Raï, the traditional Algerian folk music that emerged from the poor population of Oran in the 1920s. Known as the Prince of Raï 2.0, Saidi’s lilting, husky tones carry the essence of this music into a globalized 21st century, blending it with urban rhythms, 80s rock, Senegalese Mbalax, Gnawa trance and more.
