2012 Egyptian Pop Album To Watch Out For

1. Mai Kassab, the light pop princess turned actress is putting the final touches on her latest album set to be released on Eid-Al Adha. the album will have 12 tracks and she is almost done with each of them. I have liked Mai and liked what she was doing. Some of the collaborators on this album are the usual suspects, Ayman Bahjat Amar with lyrics, Ramy Gamal and Mohamed Yehia on the composition side. Tamim and Nader Hamdy on the musical arrangement. Other names are attached, but it seems this is a serious professional team that will make Mai's album the attention it deserves. Mai's last album was released six years ago, eternity in pop music. She makes spunky pop
2. Haitham Shaker--old pal of Tamer Hosny. He was working on his album in London and got stabbed. He is producing his 14 tracks album on his own dime, hoping to revive his career and get back in the pop game. Mohamed Atef and Ameer Ta'eema wrote most of the songs, Ramy Gamal and Mohamed Yehia did most of the music work. Tamim, Toma and Nader Hamdy worked out the music arrangment.  
3. Moroccan singer, and a darling in Egyptian pop is done with her album. She produced it and waiting for a good offer for the distribution. There are a lot of names in the lyrics and the music, people that seem to be new to the game. This might be good and might do the pop scene a big service. Jannat's last album came in 2009 and had 11 tracks. It was a very good album with an assortment of pop and romance songs.

I look forward to those tow albums for a number of reasons. One, the stars are hungry for a comeback. Two, they are investing their own money so they will give a top album. Three, the names behind the songs are seasoned. So, we will be surprised out of the many tracks each album featrues, some will have winners for sure.
