Abu Dhabi, UAE – February 24, 2022: Amr Diab, the Global Arab megastar and all-time best-selling Middle Eastern artist, is moving exclusively to Anghami.
 
Anghami Inc.

With the acquisition of Nay’s existing repertoire, as well as all of Amr Diab’s upcoming releases, Anghami will strengthen its position as the ultimate destination for lovers of the megastar’s unique composing style and melodic voice – attributes that have taken him to the top of the charts and made him one of the only Arab artists to reach international fame, with his hits performed and loved all around the world. The deal marks the start of a long and strategic partnership between both parties.
 
“I am very excited about this new venture, which will allow me to better connect with my fans and reach new music lovers around the world.

As a result, he has become extremely popular throughout the Mediterranean as well as the MENA region. Acknowledged as the first Arab and Middle Eastern artist to start producing high quality music videos, Diab became the first Egyptian and Middle Eastern performer to have a number one hit on the Billboard World Albums Charts.
