It’s Algeria’s turn. They’re about to face off against England shortly, so today’s (second) 2010 World Cup music moment comes courtesy of Khaled‘s “Aicha,” hands down one of my favorite songs of all time and one of the biggest hits to ever come out of the continent. I know some might prefer “Didi,” which Khaled performed at the 2010 World Cup Opening Ceremony, but this song has been a constant in my Walkman/Discman/iPod since its release in the late 90s.

Here’s hoping Algeria stay in it so I can also throw in some Rai ‘n’ B over the next month.
