    Cheikh El Hasnaoui

    Cheikh El Hasnaoui (1910–2002) was a Kabyle singer born in a small town near Tizi Ouzou in Kabylia, Algeria. Apparently born under the name "Si Muḥ n Aɛmar u Muḥ" but he took the name Mohamed Khelouat, it was pretty frequent at that time. He sang Algerian chaabi music, and was, along with Slimane Azem, responsible for laying the foundations of modern popular Kabyle music in the 1950s and 1960s. He died in 2002 at Saint Pierre de la Reunion, France.
