Why we love NATIVE DEEN?
Masya'allah!! I'm telling you, the way this group projects Islam (thru their songs) is really fabulous!!
Hubby loves it, I love it and even my little toddlers are loving it too!!
My little Asil had even managed to memorised some of the lyrics all by himself and sang along in baby talks. While little Asyura on the other hand, swayed her head from side to side whenever the songs were being played.
Do take your time to visit their official site. Listen to all their songs, the lyrics, how they mix the beat and everything plus the way they flo. Their songs could easily be appreciated by people of all races, religions and ethnicities.
They are truly very talented and unique in their own kind of way.
