Set to create further hype, the partnership will see Anghami hosting a total of 3 episodes’ live radio show, using the platform’s distinctive feature which allows hosts to create their own radio shows and conduct live interviews. Hosted by Saudi Arabia’s first and only FM hip-hop radio host “Laish Hip-Hop” Big Hass, the shows’ episodes are expected to discuss the entertainment and sports scene in Saudi Arabia, with in-depth conversations tackling the gaming scene and women’s football in the kingdom.
