Malika Domrane

Malika Domrane (born 12 March 1956, in Tizi Hibel) is an Algerian singer, originally from Kabylie.[1]

She began to sing at a very young age in high school choir in Tizi Ouzou. In 1969 she won a gold medal at an Algerian festival. After graduating as Nurse, she began to work in hospital, but soon decided to dedicate herself professionally to singing, in defiance of the customs of her family and village.

In 1979, she went to France to release her first album, Tsuha, her first great success. She later published several albums, with songs typified by feminist cultural and the linguistic demands of the Berber. From 1994, she decided to live in France with her family.
