Elissa prepares to release 14th studio album in October 2026
Lebanese singer Elissa is preparing to release her fourteenth studio album, tentatively referred to as ‘Elissa 14’, in October 2026. The release follows a delay from its previously expected summer window.
The upcoming album is expected to feature approximately 15 songs across Egyptian, Lebanese, and Khaleeji dialects. Notably, the project includes ‘Shita Al Riyadh’, marking Elissa’s first experience singing in the Khaleeji dialect. The album also features a reunion with poet Mohamed Rifai after 19 years and renewed collaborations with artist Marwan Khoury, alongside contributions from composers and poets such as Tamer Ashour, Aziz El Shafei, and Ahmed Zaim.
While a specific release date has not been officially confirmed, speculation has arisen regarding whether the album will launch on October 27 to coincide with the singer’s birthday.
