The Economic Court held that the trial brought by Rotana Audio and Video is not authorized against the Egyptian singer Sherine Abdel Wahab, in which she demanded the implementation of the terms of the contract concluded between them and forcing the company to pay a compensation of two million pounds.
A statement published by the office of the adviser Yasser Qansoush, the lawyer of Sherine Abdel Wahab, said that the court also rejected trial No. 2127 that Rotana submitted to stop disseminating the songs “which meets my love”, ” I wish you to forget you “and” we celebrate “. The court also forced the company to pay the compensation provided for the prevention of the dissemination of songs, confirming that the decision is final and not subject to the appeal.
The previous judicial decision puts an end to a series of differences between the Egyptian singer and Rotana, who began in 2019, when the company filed a complaint before the Cairo economic court, in which Sherine asked for a payment of remuneration of 10 million books, due to its lack of lack of commitment to contractual objects, which provides for the supply of two albums, each includes 10 songs, provided that the company films two songs in a video clip, in addition to participating in 3 concerts organized by the company.

At that time, Rotana commented the trial in an official statement, in which she declared that the music group Rotana had not been received from Sherine Abdel Wahab or her representative or representing a new song with her voice linked to her contract with the group. Thus, the song “Al -dahab”, which has spread on the Arab and international digital listening platforms, remains the last of the artist presented to the company.
After a period of legal disputes, Sherine Abdel Wahab announced last year 2024, the cancellation of all her contracts with Rotana, and confirmed, in a statement published by her office of her lawyer, that she had paid the value of The company’s penalty clause, which showed 5 million Egyptian pounds, in addition to 3 million, its song “Baldakk” fled another production company.
Sherine confirmed in her declaration that Rotana no longer had the right to oppose a contract he has concluded with other productive organizations.
However, the differences were renewed with the start of Sherine to launch the songs that Rotana had previously prevented. At that time, the Egyptian singer published a tweet via her account on the “X” platform, in which she announced that she would soon take out her songs via a chain entitled “Al -boutaka”, which she put Laded later through the release of a set of new songs via Telegram, through this chain.
Sherine Abdel -Wahab joined Rotana after her contract with her discoverer, producer Nasr Mahrous, in 2006, and presented to the company a certain number of albums, including: “Berkamak”, “I Loving”, “Ask Alia” , “I am a lot”, and “Nesai”, whose last album was with the company, was released in 2018, before the start of the crisis between them.
