The beat dropped. Egyptians listened. And then they did a double-take. That familiar tune was not an old favorite. It was Pitbull’s new song ,released in June 2026, borrowing heavily from “Satalana,” the Egyptian hit that had taken over local feeds in 2023. Within hours of its release, social media feeds in Egypt were filled with comparisons, reactions, and one recurring question: did pitbull give credit to the Egyptian version? The original version of “Satalana” dates back to 2023, when it first emerged as part of the soundtrack for the Egyptian film Baad El Shar (God Forbid, 2023). It was performed by a lineup of popular shaabi (off the people) and folk artists including Abdel Basset Hamouda and Mahmoud El Leithy, and quickly broke out of the film’s context to become a standalone cultural moment. The track spread rapidly across weddings, street celebrations, parties, and meme pages, becoming one of the most popular Egyptian songs with over 25 million streams on YouTube.

Gala de Danza’s founder and artistic director, ballet theatre dancer Christina Lyon, highlighted the company’s defining strength: the ability to bring together artists from across the world to create meaningful encounters in extraordinary settings. She described Cairo, and the GEM, as a unique venue for that purpose, where the “stillness of ancient collections meets the energy of live performance.” Lyon stressed that the event is designed for local impact, offering emerging Egyptian performers the opportunity to be seen,Continue reading "Grand Egyptian Museum and Gala de Danza Announce Regional Debut for Cairo Performance"
