Known as the father of Mediterranean music, Amr Diab is an Egyptian singer, composer and actor who has carved his way into the Middle Eastern and later international music scene through this blend of Western and Egyptian rhythms that he created.
As the first Egyptian and Middle Eastern artist to start making high-tech music videos, Diab popularized music videos in the whole MENA region.
Multiple-award winning artist, Diab also experimented with the film industry, starring in several Egyptian films, one of which was chosen as one of the best five Egyptian musical films by the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television.
