Shakira - Becoming Too Political


In an effort to encourage peace and tolerance, Shakira has decided to record her new song half in English and half in Arabic. Arabic-American singer Dania Youssef will partner with Shakira on the not yet titled song.

Furthermore, an Egyptian composer Mohamed Saad is reportedly writing the Arabic portion of the song, as well as the music. Shakira is trying to show the positive sides of the Arabic world.

The video will be shot in the United Arab Emirates.

To be fair, perhaps she should make a second song and this time make one half in English and the other half in Hebrew. In general, artists shouldn't get so involved with politics.
