Lebanese singer Nancy Ajram is making waves internationally as her new hit single “Sah Sah” becomes the first Arab song to debut on the American Billboard Dance Charts. Coming in at No. 38, the singer-songwriter has created herself a spot on the Dance/ Electronic Songs Chart with American DJ Marshmallo, who collaborated on the track.

According to Soundcharts, a music analytics tool, “Sah Sah” reached the Top 10 on the US iTunes electronic charts after peaking at number 9. The track also topped the iTunes electronic category in both Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

Taking to social media to celebrate the hit song’s success, Nancy Ajram thanked listeners for their “mind-blowing feedback.”

Ajram first teased the collaboration with Marshmello at the beginning of July on social media. The superstar took to Instagram to share a picture of herself with the DJ, who was in his usual custom white helmet resembling a marshmallow, in a recording studio.

Marshmello also shared a short clip on Instagram of him playing the stringed qanun instrument.
