Baddy Doub (Arabic: بدي دوب) (English: I Want to Melt Away) is the first studio album by Lebanese singer Elissa. The album was produced by Lido Musique and distributed by Watary music company in early December 1998 in Lebanon, before being picked up by EMI for distribution in the Arab world and elsewhere in February 1999. Elissa filmed a music video for the titular song "Baddy Doub", which achieved huge success in the Arab world. The album was among the best-selling albums in the Arab world throughout 1999 and remained on the charts in the following year. After the album's success, the American company Head & Shoulders signed with Elissa for her first commercial deal, and she advertised the shampoo with her song "Baddy Doub". After participating in the talent show "Studio El Fan," Elissa signed a contract that was never executed. She met producer Jean Saliba, who was about to start his own music production company. Saliba believed in Elissa's talent and offered her the chance to make a full album. Work on the album began in 1998 with arranger Jean-Marie Riachi, who arranged the song "Baddy Doub" first. Jean Saliba produced for the first time, Jean-Marie arranged for the first time, and Elissa sang in the studio for the first time. The album was recorded entirely in the studio and no live musical instruments were used. All the songs were arranged with keyboards. Six of the songs were Turkish hits at the time of their release in Turkey, along with two new songs by Egyptian composer Salah El Sharnoubi and arranger Nasser Al Asaad. Everyone wanted to introduce a new musical style and a Western atmosphere. The question was whether the album would succeed or fail. The song "Baddy Doub" was originally "Be Adam" by Turkish artist Gülşen....
