Empowering Arab Artists: Suhel Nafar, Head of Empire West Asia/North AfricaSuhel Nafar speaks to his journey and influence in the global music scene, focusing on his work with EMPIRE’s West Asia/North Africa division to promote Arab artists worldwide. When I was at Spotify, I noticed a gap in female artist representation, which was around 2 to 3%. In 2023, at Empire, out of over 400 artists we distributed, 40% were female artists. One thing that artists need to understand is that they need to find the right deal. Other than that, Empire artists had almost 200 covers and banners across various platforms in 2023.
