I can't wait for everyone to be able to hear her new EP later this year and for the impact our partnership will bring to her music style and reach.

Maya rose to fame in 1996. Over the next decade, she went on to present programmes across the leading Arabic channels such as MBC, Orbit, LBC and MTV.

In 2015, Maya independently released her debut album #MyMaya, which featured nine songs in both Egyptian and Lebanese.
