I don't see the similarities with the molam album at all. This I found highly enjoyable and entertaining, much to my surprise, given Mord's review above. She's a decent singer, unlike much of (imo) the molam gang, and though the album is 16 tracks long I never felt it was time to skip or just stop listening. Nothing brilliant, nothing I'd necessarily listen to again, but nothing I wouldn't listen to again, if you know what I mean. The only time I cringed a little was her attempt to "rock up" the song "Pawee Giya Ma" as if she was some sort of female Elvis: that was terrible. But the instrumentation sounded - dunno if it was - mostly quite ethnic, she can sing and the melodies were catchy and sort of poppy. Very palatable, and very listenable.

Quite surprised: I'll give this a good 8/10.
