All Egyptian Presidential Candidates Songs



Elections in Egypt are drawn closer and things are getting interesting as the campaigns are at full swing, this should be exciting to watch, the results might be scary. But in all honest, this is politics, there are no conspiracies just business as usual. Now, music has its part as well. When the candidate searches for a simple way to connect with simple voters, they look for music. I have worked hard to curate those pictures from all campaigns, weel, the ones who have an online presence anyway. 

Most songs are recorded in Sh'abi style, but there are many pop-ish songs and at least one rap songs. However, Islamist candidates tend to play down the music in favor of better lyrics. Morsi's song is performed by children to avoid getting in argument of weather music is Halal or not.  Another observation, those songs are not going to win any artistic awards, they are often done in a rush. Last thing, these songs all mention the name of the candidate, they do not imply it, they just spell is out and tell you up front.

Mohamed Morsi, The Muslim Brotherhood's presidential candidate, he was supposed to be a winner but now it seems that the Muslim votes have been broken into segments, so good luck. نهضتنا | اغنيه رووعه لدعم الدكتور محمد مرسي Abdel Moneim Aboul Fotouh, you either love this guy or hate him. Used to be part of the Brotherhood camp, but seems to scare off some people as they think this is a ploy. He had received some heat lately. أبو الفتوح موال صعيدي | #أبوالفتوح #Abolfotoh اغنيه ابو الفتوح شعبى أغنية حملة أبو الفتوح "أبو الفتوح مشروع وطن" راب أبوالفتوح Amr Moussa, too bad nobody seems to want to sing for this guy. Hamdeen Sabahi, the most popular with the youth and independent voters. Intellectuals also fall in his camp as well. He sounds like a man of reason and has a nice smile, not much ill has been written about him. If songs can vote, Hamdeen will be the president of Egypt.

  Ahmed Shafik, the most youth and activists love to hate. He has some support among the communities who have done well during the Mubarak years and few in the army establishment. احلي اغنية شعبي في حب الفريق احمد شفيق
