1. A Moroccan female Pop/R&B/hip-hop vocalist, originally from Kalaat Sraghna, Manal grew up in Marrakesh where she studied business and finance. Having always wanted to be a musical artist, she posted covers on YouTube and was discovered by Hamza Ait Khali, the partner of Moroccan producer DJ Van.
After a short stint with DJ Van's label Magic Castle Entertainment and the release of her debut single Denia, which earned her the 'Best Female Artist in Northern Africa' award at the Africa Music Awards in 2015, she switched management to Tarik Azzougarh, better known as Cilvaringz, producer and conceptualizer of the world's most expensive musical work ever sold, Wu-Tang Clan's Once Upon A Time in Shaolin.
Manal followed up her debut single with her song Koulchi Ban, the last song she would do with DJ Van. The release of Koulchi Ban received critical acclaim from fans and sparked the interest of Sony Music Middle East. In October 2017, Manal became one of the first Moroccan artists to sign to a major label in the Arab world.
In February 2018, Manal released her third single Taj (Crown). Due to its music video and a significant departure from Manal's signature sound, Taj started a buzz and garnered millions of views quickly. It is one of the most viewed Arabic rap songs performed by a female artist. After Taj, Manal released the song Nah featuring Moroccan rap duo Shayfeen and then had one of her biggest singles to date, Slay, in collaboration with ElGrandeToto.
In November 2019, Manal signed a distribution deal with RCA Records, a division of Sony Music France, through her record company Bench & Guess Entertainment.
Currently, she is under an exclusive license agreement with the same label, and under a music publishing agreement with Universal Music Publishing.
Manal's current management team includes Anissa Jalab, former manager of Belgian rapper Damso, head of Wagram Belgium, and also manager of ElGrandeToto.
In May 2021, Manal released her first album entitled 360, which included the hit single Niya.
Deprived of the stage during the COVID-19 pandemic, she launched, with the help of her husband Moncef Guessous, a streetwear brand called Bari & Soch.
In November 2021, Manal earned the 'Best Female Artist in Northern Africa' award at the 2021 All Africa Music Awards for the second time in her career.
In May 2022, Manal performed "3ARI" for COLORS. In October 2022, she was chosen to feature in Light The Sky, a song for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, collaborating with artists, RedOne, Balqees, Rahma Riad and Nora Fatehi.
2. Manal was a blues band from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Formed in 1968 by Javier Martínez (drums and vocals), Claudio Gabis (guitar) and Alejandro Medina (bass), the band is considered a fundamental pillar in the birth of Argentine rock.
Más Allá Del Valle Del Tiempo
Manal Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
llega hasta a mí una extraña y lejana sensación.
Y si recuerdo esas montañas azules que quedaron tan atrás
Vuelve a inquietarme la memoria de este mundo,
cuando aún no era igual.
Y mi extraño sentimiento vuela entre bosques sin sur
Y se hunde en las profundidades más grandes del mar.
Como buscando las huellas borradas de otros tiempos.
Cuando la noche se hace trizas en mil ojos de luz
caen sobre mi las presencias mudas de otros mundos.
Y si miro esas mágicas ruinas que aún existen aquí
me siento seguro de que otras pisadas nos precedieron.
Y mi extraño pensamiento llega mas allá
de todo lo que hasta hoy pude comprender.
Y me arroja en ríos que aun no puedo cruzar
como empujándome a través, a través, de otros cielos.
The lyrics of Manal's song "Más Allá Del Valle Del Tiempo" evoke a sense of longing and nostalgia for a distant and different world. The first verse describes a strange and distant sensation that reaches the singer when the afternoons bleed into the brown earth. Memories of blue mountains left behind stir restlessness in the singer's mind, as they remember a time when the world was not as it is now.
The second verse takes the listener on a journey through forests without a south, diving into the deepest depths of the sea. It speaks of going beyond the plains and even further, searching for the erased footprints of other times. The night is described as breaking apart into a thousand eyes of light, and the silent presence of other worlds falls upon the singer. Looking at the magical ruins that still exist, the singer feels certain that other footsteps had preceded them.
The chorus portrays the singer's strange thoughts that reach beyond everything they have understood until now. It propels them towards rivers they cannot yet cross, as if urging them to venture into other realms and skies.
Overall, the lyrics of "Más Allá Del Valle Del Tiempo" express a yearning for an alternate reality, a connection to the past, and a curiosity to explore the unknown.

En la versión de estudio que grabara Claudio Gabis con la pesada en (1973) Las primeras estrofas de la canción las canta Kubero Diaz y las siguiente Alejandro Medina. Que buen tema, magnifica es esta versión de Manal, gracias por compartirla. Abrazo.

MEDINA PARA SIEMPRE!! QUE BUEN VIVO DEL ULTIMO CONCIERTO DE MANAL EN OBRAS! Y SI! ESTO ES ROCK!
@YasuHub
@MrCastellorizon No. A este tema nunca lo editaron en un disco como Manal. Es una composición que salió en el disco solista de Claudio Gabis y La Pesada (1973) , en una versión mas lenta y psicodélica.
@YasuHub
@gelpgimLa22 Así es, canta Alejandro Medina.
