Abdel Halim Hafez's family objects to Mawazine Festival's hologram concert
A dispute has erupted between the organizers of the Mawazine Festival and the family of the late Egyptian singer Abdel Halim Hafez following the announcement of a hologram concert featuring the « Dark-Skinned Nightingale» at the festival's sixth edition. The family accused the organizers of proceeding without obtaining prior permission, insisting that the artist's artistic and literary rights are exclusively theirs and cannot be used without consent. Meanwhile, the organizing company stated that the concert is being held under a legal agreement with producer Mohsen Jaber, who they claim holds the rights to exploit Abdel Halim's songs. In response, Mohamed Shabana, the artist's nephew, denied Jaber's ownership of these rights and affirmed that the family plans to take legal action in several countries to protect Abdel Halim's legacy, especially after previous incidents they believe have harmed the artist's image.

She kept performing at the Cairo Opera House while searching for a music producer to launch her music career.

The album was released, under the title 'Free Mix3: Tamer and Sherine' and was a big hit all across the entire Middle East and North Africa.
