Thanks Moey for this website it’s a chance for me to talk a bit about Aziz I like his songs and the way he sing too, on 14th Jun I went to Arab Bank concert they invited many Singers Nancy Agram. Ewan, Hani Metwasi and Aziz Maraka, for me I like Aziz sooooooooooo much I am a fan of RAZZ and I am very proud of him too that we have a Jordanian singer who sign’s in (Lahjeh Ordouneh) and speaks about the Jordanian culture, when I went to that concert it was my first time to attend live and it was fantastic, but unfortunately the audience where coming Only to see Nancy Agram, and they did’t understand Aziz music, I was very angry and I get mad when they started to shouts *Bedna Nanacy* while Aziz where singing my favorite song (Ya Bent Elnas) after finishing his song aziz say thank you and cut his concert, i want to tell everybody and specially Aziz DON’T feel upset or mad for a few people who dose not reserve to listen to a high level of songs they used to listen to Rubbish and they are MASAKEEN because they don’t worth it.
Keep up the good work Aziz and never give them any attention, we love you.
