History

After leaving her previous group, the pop quintet Preluders, in 2005, Anne Ross was introduced by Jörn-Uwe Fahrenkrog-Petersen to Manel Filali, and so they formed the duo Milk & Honey. They signed with Warner Music Group in 2006 and released the single "Habibi (Je t'aime)"; produced by Bülent Aris and Felix Schönewald, it mixes traditional pop music aspects with elements of oriental music.

In 2007 the duo reached higher prominence after performing at the reality show Popstars and in the German version of Come Dine with Me (entitled Das perfekte Dinner). In the same year, they released their second single, "Didi", a re-imagined version of Khaled's song of the same name; a music video for it premiered at VIVA Germany on 17 August 2007.

In 2008, the duo released their debut studio album, Elbi, through Warner Music Group. Following their hiatus, Manel Filali pursued a solo music career, releasing her debut single "Leche Leche (Anna Anna)" featuring Lafrontino and Don Cali in 2009, which went on to be her only single at that time. She later returned in 2020 with the single "No Easy Way", released under the name MNL.
