description: "Emel Mathlouthi, also known professionally as Emel, is a Tunisian-American singer-songwriter, musician, arranger and producer. She rose to fame with her protest song \"Kelmti Horra\", which became an anthem for the Tunisian revolution and the Arab Spring. Her first studio album, also titled Kelmti Horra, was released worldwide in 2012 to critical acclaim: she combined Arabic roots with western influence. Her second album, Ensen, was released in 2017, blending electronica with classical music. On Everywhere We Looked Was Burning in 2019, she sang all the lyrics in English."
