[edit] Ayamy

Ayamy[1] was Amr Mostafa's Debut album, it contained 12 songs, he introduced rock music in 2 songs, The Album was a huge success for Amr, but later, Amr had many disputes with the album producer Gamal Marwan because he sold his melodies outside Egypt without his permission, and that resulted in lackluster sales, airplay, and promotion for Amr’s debut album. But Amr's talent was noticed by people and that helped him a lot in his next album Alama Fi Hyatak.

[edit] Al Kebeer Kebeer

Al Kebeer Kebeer is Amr's third album (mini-album) in his career. At first, Amr composed the song demo for Mustafa Sandal, then he liked it's music so he told Musti he is going to sing it; then he wrote Al Kebeer Kebeer song and sang it using the same music and melody. Amr didn't want to release it as a single so he thought about the idea of releasing a mini-album that would consist of three songs only. He used old melodies on the other 2 songs. The album was nice and had good sales. "Ghaltet Omry" was the most requested song in egyptian radio channels in 2009 even though there were a lot of hits from Amr Diab, Tamer Hosny, Hisham Abbas and other superstars who released albums in the summer of 2009.
