Amr Diab to Release New Album This Summer
Yara Sameh
"El Hadaba' Amr Diab will be dropping a new album later this year.
Diab announced at his latest gig in Kuwait that his forthcoming album will arrive in Eid al-Adha.
The acclaimed singer is currently putting the final touches on the record.
In the new album, he collaborates with a large number of poets and composers, including Bahaa El Din Mohamed, Ayman Bahgat Kamar, Tamer Hussein, and Aziz Al-Shafi'i.
In December 2023, Diab released his last album "Makanak".
The record contains 12 songs bearing surprises that represent major progress in Egyptian and Arab music.
In the album, he collaborated with a large number of poets and composers including Bahaa El Din Mohamed, Ayman Bahgat Kamar, Tamer Hussein, mahraganat songwriter Mustafa Hadouta, Aziz Al-Shafi'i, Mohamed Yahya, and Islam Zaki.
"Makanak" represents the return of Diab to album-making after releasing his last album, 'Ya Ana Ya La' back in 2021.
Born on October 11, 1961, Diab is a multi-award-winning pop singer-songwriter. He created his own style which is often termed 'Mediterranean Music', a blend of Western and Egyptian rhythms, by 1992, he became the first Arabic artist to start making high-tech music videos.
He is a Guinness World Record holder, the best-selling Middle Eastern artist, a seven-time winner of World Music Awards, and a five-time winner of Platinum Records.
Diab's fame in the entertainment industry has led him to experiment with other forms of media, such as film-making.
The acclaimed singer co-starred in four films, 'Al Sagenatan', 'El Afareet', 'Ice Cream in Gleam', and 'Dehk Wa Le'b Wa Gad Wa Hob'.
In 1988, he made his acting debut in the film 'Al Sagenatan' starring prominent actresses Elham Shahin and Samah Anwar.
Despite the films' success, Diab did not experience the same success in acting as he had with his music. He has focused on his singing career since 1993.
In 2020, the iconic singer signed on to make an acting comeback in an original Arabic series for Netflix. The project has yet to come to light.
