Biography
He grew up in a musical family in a working-class neighborhood, where partying was part of the culture. Although passionate about music, he chose to concentrate first on his studies, at the end of which he applied for an executive position in a national company. He sings about the youth of his country, the working-class neighborhoods of Algiers and the impossible loves; timeless themes that resound and echo with his many many listeners. Reda Doumaz created an Arabic version of the Spanish song "Bésame mucho", playing it on a double-stringed Algerian mandolin. The cover also features woman vocals reciting some of the lyrics in Spanish.
