The king of sentimental rai, assassinated in Oran on September 29, 1994, at age 26. Cheb Hasni sang about love, heartbreak, and the streets with a tenderness that cut through the violence of the 1990s. His voice still plays in every taxi, every cafe, every wedding. He recorded over 100 cassettes in his short life, and every one of them sold hundreds of thousands of copies. He was killed during the Black Decade, and his death remains one of the great losses of Algerian music. Hasni's rai was the rai of the people: direct, emotional, unpolished, real. He sang what others were afraid to say. His absence is still felt in every song that tries to follow him.
