Unless you’ve been completely offline, you’ve definitely heard Khatfoony from Amr Diab’s latest album Ebtadena. The track was released just two days ago and is already trending strongly. But what’s got everyone talking is how his daughter Jana completely steals the show.
Usually, Jana sings in English, so hearing her deliver that delicate Arabic hook was a refreshing surprise. Manifesting more Arabic tracks from her soon. Until then, here are five songs by Jana that deserve a spot on your playlist right now:
1. Khatfoony
While Amr Diab sings the main verses, it’s Jana’s soft, delicate “khatfoony” that everyone can’t stop replaying. Her part is so catchy it basically hijacks your brain, and the blend of Arabic and English feels like old-school meets new-gen perfection.
2. Escape Plan
Her very first single, Escape Plan, set the tone for her sound—moody, dreamy, and effortlessly cool. It’s the kind of song you put on when you need to feel like the main character driving away from it all.
3. Gamila
Another collab with her dad that hits different. If you want more of that Jana-Amr Diab combo, Gamila is essential listening. It’s got that signature Amr Diab energy, with Jana adding her own fresh touch.
4. I’ll Just Say It
This music video feels like scrolling through Jana’s camera roll—candid moments, sunsets, and all the little snapshots that make up her world. The song itself feels super personal.
5. Never the Same
Released just two weeks ago as part of the series The Buccaneers, this track is proof that Jana Diab is not slowing down anytime soon. It’s polished, emotional, and basically sounds like it was made to be on your late-night playlist.
With Khatfoony blowing up and Jana showing she can float effortlessly between Arabic and English, it feels like she’s only getting started. Keep your eye (and your playlists) ready—there’s definitely more to come.
