Tommy Drops Stripped-Down Acoustic Rework of 'El Rawya' EP

After taking the region by storm with his breakout 'El Rwaya' EP, Egyptian artist Tommyy returns with a stripped-back rework of the project: 'El Rwaya (Acoustic Version)'. Releasing via M-Town Records, the new EP reimagines four standout tracks - 'Taree2 Egbari', 'Emshy', 'Etghayart' and 'Mekameleen' - as intimate, one-take live performances accompanied by Galaleo on acoustic piano.

Known for his viral TikTok performances and genre-fluid vocal delivery, Tommyy now shifts the focus from production to pure presence. No autotune, no processing, just voice, piano, and emotional clarity. The result is a raw, poetic document of healing and heartbreak, recorded live in minimalist sessions that bring the artist closer to his fans than ever.

“I made 'El Rwaya' to escape," Tommyy shares with SceneNoise. "The acoustic version is me confronting everything I ran from.”

The original 'El Rwaya' EP reached millions across DSPs and made major waves on Spotify MENA, Anghami, and Billboard Arabia, with the track 'Emshy' hitting Top 3 in Egypt and trending on TikTok with over 857K user-generated videos.

This acoustic rework is a personal one. A fan-requested release and a creative reset, 'El Rwaya (Acoustic Version)' offers a rare kind of vulnerability in today’s landscape: live, lyric-driven, and unfiltered.
