Review
With The Gift, Moroccan-born master Hassan Hakmoun has created an accessible global-minded effort that isn't a sellout. He's grabbed Paula Cole to sing with him on the title track and slipped a typical pop backbeat underneath several tracks, including the magnificent "Syada Ana." Yet he never blunts the trancelike repetitions of his Gnawan roots -- The Gift's long, imploring jams reveal new shades and textures with each spin.TOM MOON
