Rita’s debut album catapulted her from relative anonymity to diva-level stardom almost instantly, thanks to 10 irresistible pop hits and her expertly wielded vocals—not to mention her undeniable stage presence. Upbeat and propulsive songs are interspersed with softer, tender numbers, with ballads like the slow-burning and ardent “Hachnisini Tachat Knafech” and the bewitching anthem “Bgida” showing why Rita, for many, was love at first sight.
