Mahmoud El-Esseily releases sun-soaked summer album
A few songs in the album were composed by El-Esseily, including Eish? (What?), Almaz (Diamonds) to lyrics by Felpino, and Salam Salam to lyrics by Ali Fathallah.
Meanwhile, Dalma Dalma (Dark Dark) is penned by Tamer Hussein to music by Mohamed Yehia.
The songs Habibi Wenta Gamby (My Love, When You're Beside Me) and Baheb Elly Yehabak (I Love Who Loves You) are composed by Aziz El-Shafei to lyrics by Menna El-Kiey.
The new songs continue El-Esseily's distinctive style of presenting works that tackle love and introspection, peace, and letting go.
Besides being skilled in soulful or sentimental melodic textures, he balances the mood with occasional pop-style playful modern sensibility.
The new summer album comes three weeks after the singer's last single, the upbeat-vibe song Tarabatatee, released on 8 July.
It also follows the album Zaalan Menny Ya Sheta Leh? (Why Are You Upset with Me, Winter?) released in January.
El-Esseily
Born in 1982, El-Esseily's dedication to music started at a young age. He began taking piano lessons at the age of four.
He formed his first band while studying Integrated Marketing Communication at the American University in Cairo, where he participated in every competition showcasing student talents.
The university released a CD with the students' songs, which included El-Esseily's Khayef Men Bokra (I Am Afraid of Tomorrow). El-Esseily was also an opening act for Amr Diab's concert at the university.
In 2002, his popularity began to grow, as he kept opening concerts for other well-known singers, including Elissa.
In 2004, he released his first album, Rayeh Ala Fein? (Where Are You Going?), followed by several other highly successful albums, including Meen Ana (Who Am I), Tool Manty Ganby (As Long As You Are Next To Me), and Donia Gedida (New World).
Faithful to the light pop genre, El-Esseily touches the hearts of his fans with songs that discuss happiness and the pains of romantic relationships.

Rare Funerary Stele Handed Over to Al-Imam Al-Shafi'i Antiquities Zone by Archaeologist Tamer El-Menshawy
Ali abo deshish On the morning of July 24, 2025, Egyptian archaeologist Tamer El-Menshawy announced the handover of a rare funerary stele to the Al-Imam Al-Shafi'i Antiquities Zone. The artifact was delivered within the vicinity of the Mosque of Imam Al-Layth Ibn Sa'd, in preparation for its future display at the Al-Imam Al-Shafi'i Visitor Center. El-Menshawy stated that the stele was uncovered during construction work for the new Salah Salem Corridor near the Qubbat Al-Munoufi and the Imam Al-Shafi'i necropolis. He emphasized the significance of this artifact as a rare example of Egypt's funerary heritage. He extended his gratitude to Dr. Rania El-Shiouy, Director of the Al-Imam Al-Shafi'i Antiquities Zone, for her dedicated efforts in safeguarding both local and international heritage. El-Menshawy noted that preserving such artifacts echoes the practices of ancient Egyptians, who chose Anubis as the guardian of tombs — a symbolic reminder of the importance of protecting each piece of the nation's historical legacy. Additionally, the official page of the Al-Imam Al-Shafi'i Antiquities Zone confirmed the receipt of a fragment of the stele — possibly inscribed in Turkish or Persian — in collaboration with civil society. The piece, which had not been previously registered, was handed over by Mr. Tamer El-Menshawy and is now preserved at the zone. It will be reviewed by the relevant committees in the Islamic and Coptic Antiquities Sector for study and potential registration. The department expressed its appreciation for his contribution and affirmed its ongoing commitment to safeguarding Egypt's priceless heritage. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results
