After nearly three years, the legendary Egyptian pop star is set to make a grand return to major music streaming platforms, with all his albums and beloved music videos soon available once more on YouTube and other platforms. This much-anticipated comeback follows a period of absence beginning in early 2022, when Diab signed an exclusive deal with Anghami. As a result, albums released under his label, Nay, were removed from platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube—a decision that disappointed many fans.
However, it seems the wait is almost over. Amr Diab has recently hinted at something big on his Instagram, teasing a significant announcement set for October 31. At Arabsounds, we’re thrilled to bring you an early look at what’s likely coming: Amr Diab has reportedly signed a new deal with Sony Music, opening the door for his entire catalog to return to all major streaming services.
Early evidence of this shift is already appearing. Hidden links to his music videos on YouTube reveal the addition of the Sony Music logo and updated descriptions, signaling that his songs will soon be available on all platforms. For example, the description for his hit single “Yetalemo” from the Kol Hayaty album now reads:
"Listen now to ‘Yetalemo’ from ‘Kol Hayaty’ Album on all platforms | اسمع الآن أغنية ”يتعلموا” من ألبوم “كل حياتي” على جميع المنصات"
This return promises to be a milestone for Arabic music fans, reintroducing Amr Diab's iconic repertoire to loyal listeners and new audiences around the world. Stay tuned for the official announcement on October 31, and prepare to enjoy Amr Diab’s timeless hits on your favorite streaming platform!
