Boudjemaâ El Ankis
Boudjemaâ El Ankis (born Casbah of Algiers, 17 June 1927 – died Algiers, 2 September 2015), also known as Mohammed Boudjemaâ, was an Algerian performer of chaâbi music, who also played the mondol. He was known in Algeria for his more than 300 songs and for being imprisoned by the French from 1957-1960, for his protest of their occupation of Algeria. He became a "pioneer" of Algerian music while working with lyricist Mahbou Bati and inspired a new generation of chaabi musicians. Discography
