Akter Min Aey Waqit (Arabic: أكتر من أي وقت; English: More Than Ever) is the eleventh studio album by Moroccan singer Laila Ghofran released by Rotana on 17 February 2005.[1] The album was well received by the public especially following the massive success of its lead single, Ashalhalk. The album contains eight songs and is the last Ghofran album released by Rotana before the artist cut ties with the record label.
In this album, Ghofran collaborated with a number of songwriters, such as Amir Taima, Riyad Al-Hamshari, Ahmed Ali, Mohammad Rifai, and Wissam Sabry. As for the melodies, the songs were composed by Riyad Al-Hamshari, Tamer Ali Hassan, Mohammad Rifai, Aser Ashour, and Rashida Ali.[2]
Release
The album was released on 17 February 2005, by Rotana. For the album's artwork, Laila appeared with a new and youthful look, which she later justified by saying she lost weight while preparing the album, as she told Al-Ahram magazine. The album's artwork caused controversy because Laila removed her last name the cover, something that she later justified this by saying that she wanted to test the audience to know they're opinions about her new music, regardless of her name.[3]
Singles
Ashalhalk: The song was released in March 2005 and accompanied by a music video directed by Mohammad Joma'a and shot in Beirut.[4]
