The release of Egyptian artist Mohamed Ramadan’s new song "Ana Enta" sparked widespread controversy after an official complaint was filed against him accusing him of insulting an Egyptian family named "Helhel," due to the use of the name in a context some considered offensive.

Lawyer Ahmed Helhel filed the official complaint accusing Ramadan of slander and defamation that harms the dignity of the Helhel family, which has roots in several Egyptian governorates. He pointed out that the song containing the name was broadcast through public media,

causing significant emotional harm to the family members, and demanded an immediate halt to the song’s broadcast and referring the artist for investigation.

Mohamed Ramadan responded to the controversy on his official Instagram account, affirming his respect and appreciation for the Helhel family. On behalf of the song’s lyricist, Mostafa Hadouta, he stated there was no intention to offend the family, asking the public for patience,

emphasizing that his goal is to bring joy to people’s hearts, not to upset them.

Negative and Positive Reactions

The controversial song "Ana Enta," written by Mostafa Hadouta and composed by Mostafa Taj, includes phrases that some interpreted as sarcastic and negative, especially the use of the word "Helhel," which many saw as a direct insult to the family bearing that name.

Despite the controversy, the song received widespread engagement on social media platforms, garnering positive comments and praise for the video and lyrics, reflecting a split in public opinion toward the artistic work.
