Zahra responds to the revelation that she is not the real voice of Fabiola 2: “It was recorded behind my back.” music

In “Belpop” the history of Belgian pop music is explained in detail. The VRT Canvas focused on our dance music this week. This is how Karen Pollaerts, who sang countless hit songs in the 1990s and 2000s, came into the spotlight. Like “Walk on Water” by Milk Inc, but also “Lift You Up” by 2 Fabiola.

“This is partly true,” Zahra now answers in a video she shared on social media. The former “Spring” face explains how it went. “‘Play This Song’ (from 1995, ed.) was actually sung before we existed as a formation,” she explains. “While ‘Freak out’ and ‘Lift u up’ were recorded behind my back, with a promise to let me sing the next ones. That was until ‘I’m on Fire’. In that song, you can hear very clearly that she (Karen Pollaerts, editor) is singing the chorus, and I’m singing The verses seem a little lower.

So Zahra believes that she and Karen were listened to during that period. Although, according to Zahra, the singer eventually changed that herself. “Catherine didn’t like the fact that we sang ‘I’m on fire’ together. Even though we’d never been in the studio together, something bothered her. So she stepped up, and that was a blessing for me. Because after that came ‘I’m on Fire’ Magic Flight”, which I was finally allowed to sing myself. Since this album I have been the sole singer and co-written all the songs.
