Mahmoud Ahmed's Slow Collections is a mesmerizing album that showcases the Ethiopian singer's soulful voice and his ability to blend different musical genres. The album features 10 tracks, each of which is a masterpiece in its own right.

The album opens with "Atawurulegn Lela," a slow and contemplative track that sets the tone for the rest of the album.
