Biography
Wegz, born Ahmed Ali Shahat on 11 September 1998 in Egypt, is a rapper, singer-songwriter, and actor. Raised in Alexandria's Al Wardian neighbourhood, he brought Egyptian trap music and Arabic hip hop into Arab mainstream consciousness. His sound blends Western trap and hip hop with Egyptian Mahraganat, Shaabi folk music, R&B, and Afrobeats.
He first gained national attention with the 2018 single "TNT". His breakthrough came with "Dorak Gai" ("You're Next") in 2020, accumulating over 24 million YouTube views within two months. In 2022, his crossover single "El Bakht" ("Luck") peaked at number 14 on the Billboard Arabia Hot 100 and became the most-streamed song in the Arab world that year. He held the title of most-streamed artist in Egypt on Spotify for three consecutive years—2020, 2021, and 2022—and in December 2022 was named Spotify's most-streamed Arab artist across the MENA region. As a Virgo born in September, Wegz's analytical approach to blending genres reflects his methodical rise through streaming platforms across the Arab world.
