The Spotify Wrapped 2022 results revealed that Egyptian artists were at the forefront of the top steamed music in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, with Egyptian rapper Wegz featuring as the most-streamed artist in the region.

Egyptian artists including Marwan Moussa, Marwan Pablo, Essam Sasa, Mohamed Hamaki, Cairokee and Ahmed Saad also feature on the list.

Cairokee’s hit album ‘Roma’ has been listened to over 6.2 million times and Bahaa Sultan’s indulgent song Taala Adalaak (Let Me Spoil You) was streamed over four million times.

The personalized experience lets users take a look back on their listening habits, highlighting trends and artists across regions.

In essence, Spotify Wrapped is ready to reveal just how many times everyone replayed Wegz’s hit song El Bakht (Fortune), no matter how much anyone tries to deny it.
