Ruby postponed for a fourth time

After it was scheduled to be released before the New Year, Egyptian director/producer Sharif Sabri has decided to postpone the release of the upcoming album for Egyptian singer Roubi.

Sharif stated that he has delayed the release until the beginning January, due to the instability of the record industry and the release of so many albums for prominent singers like Egyptian Amr Diab.

The album “Misheet Wara Ihsasi” (I Followed my Feelings) is waiting to be launched and the singer has filmed the main song “Misheet Wara Ihsasi” in the form of a music video to release with the album.

The clip was directed by Ruby’s business manager Sharif, who stressed that the video is different from any other Ruby has filmed.

Roubi will present a new style of dancing in the clip, featuring new steps she created herself. The singer had gone on a strict diet especially for the clip, which was filmed in the tourist city of Sharm El Sheikh – Egypt.

The album will mark Ruby’s return to the spotlight after a year long absence. It features eight songs varying in style from oriental and western. The songs are considered different from anything the singer has presented in the past.

Ruby stated that before she had sang and danced for mere amusement, but in this particular album she placed extra efforts to bring out her best in the hope of meeting the expectations of her fans.

Ruby has admitted that she has fallen in love, but refused to reveal the identity of the man who has captured her heart. The singer is “head over heals” with her new love, and does not know where the relationship will lead.

Ruby revealed that she does not know if she is ready to make a serious commitment, like marriage, at this point in her life and take on such a responsibility.
