Top 10 Omani talents on Facebook

Here is a Top 10 of Omani individuals, artists, sportsmen, singers, etc. Plenty of surprises! Only one footballer in the top 10 and some big names like Arab’s Got Talent star Shaima Al Mughairi are out! It only takes into account pages in English, here it follows:
DanZak - 13,019 fans. At the top spot we find the well known DanZak, an Omani RnB/pop artist who has over 40 records of high hit potential. His music has a unique sound of an afro-arab blend with modern pop that is rare to find and he is currently based in Muscat.





Ali Al-Habsi - 8,758 fans. The legendary goalkeeper Ali Al-Habsi is in second position. Currently playing in the English Premier League at Wigan.




SalimPhoto.com - 4,814 fans. Salim is an Omani photographer who loves taking pictures ranging from Macro, studio, fine art, wild life or landscape…you name it! Loved by his fans.

SaMi aL-ZaDJaLi - 2,996 fans. The Omani super model is on fourth spot. Probably very gorgeous and attractive.




SG - 1,792 fans. On fifth position we find Salim Ghalib. SG started off in the late 90’s by recording instrumentals of other artists' music and then developed in early 2004 with hip-hop/R&B group known as Dramakillaz (D.K). SG has a smash hit single called "Pony".

TRIPLE-B - 1,710 fans. Rapper, Song Writer, Producer. He's been writing songs for the past seven years and has had a production experience in Malaysia.


DJ BANG - 1,612 fans. Well known as the King of House Music (not bad is he??)! Also plays RnB, Hiphop, Dance, Reggae, Dancehall and more... Known for platinum remixes in all music genres!





Joey Jo - 1,505 fans. Also known as “The natural born singer”. JJ is a singer, producer, composer and lyricist into the RnB, Soul, HipHop, Pop and Reggeaton genres. JJ is at number eight.


Raya Arts - 1,446 fans. The only female in the top 10, Raya does paintings, sketches and digital art in a modern way with the support of Photoshop and Illustrator.


Ahmad Al Harthy - 1,112. Ahmad is the professional racing driver currently in the Porsche Carrera Cup Great Britain championship. Used to finish in the top spots in his races this time he finishes on the tenth spot.


So a few surprises there and all pretty much dominated by hip hop / rap singers; music and Facebook a match made in heaven? Well done to them for using Facebook so smartly for keeping in touch with their loyal fans. 
Lastly, I'd like to thank my good friend, and really talented, Fatima from Mild & Wild for passing me some useful insights.

PS: if I have forgotten someone please let me know and I'll add him/her to the list.

    Thanks Olga.
    @Oman; kamil doesn't make it to the top 10 in terms of fans, but thanks for suggesting it.
    Hi Nabsj, i did not forget Janan but hers is a group and not a page.
    And as Anon said, proud of them all. Thanks everyone!

    Facebooks classifications and how to set various parameters up are a bit confusing to me - and so that I dont feel so ignorant , I hope to lots of others -
    so perhaps a total 'like/friend/join/etc' by group, personal page, page etc could be a way to include people who might have set up on an ad hoc basis

    thanks for bringing up the list , many names i'm checking out for the 1st time havent been updated since a while

    there are others that aren't included in the list i.e. :

    -->Salah Al-Zadjali 1440fans
    ->Issam Balochi

    in my opinion issam balochi is a rare omani pillar for his purposeful deep analytic nobel meanings he embody in his lyrics that effected lots of peoples lives, going beyond lyrics that are merely concerned about relationships

    @Oman; i used very simple parameters; i chose 'pages' in English with the highest number of fans.
    @Siraag, thanks for suggesting those two pages but again they cannot be included in the top 10 as they are mostly in Arabic and do not have enough fans. Thanks for the visit!
