Announcing the release on Instagram, Samaha posted a clip from the song and stressed that she sees AI as a creative aid rather than a substitute for human talent.

"Artificial intelligence doesn't have to be a problem. If an artist uses it the right way, it's not a replacement for the artist; it's a tool that helps bring them closer to their imagination," she wrote.

The music video released on YouTube saw execution by CREAITE Studios, while the credits describe it as "CRE'AI'TED" by Roger Ghantous, underscoring the production's use of artificial intelligence as a creative tool rather than a substitute for traditional artistry. 

Samaha's statement comes amid ongoing debates across the global music industry over the growing use of generative AI in songwriting, music production and visual content, with artists divided over whether the technology represents an opportunity for creative experimentation or a threat to artistic originality.

The singer's comments position her among those who view AI as a means of expanding creative possibilities while maintaining that the artist remains at the centre of the creative process.

 

 

Samaha also invited fans to listen to Ya Hazzy, which is now available on major streaming platforms.

Lebanese singer, actress and musical theatre performer, Samaha's career spans more than two decades.

Known for blending Arabic pop with theatrical performance, she has released several chart-topping albums and won multiple regional music awards.

In addition to her music career, she has starred in stage productions, television series and films, establishing herself as one of the Arab world's leading entertainers.
