Al-Marsad newspaper: The artist, Muhammad Abdo, had mercy on the late artist Talal Maddah, at the beginning of tonight’s concert, at the Muftaha Theater in Abha.
At the beginning of the ceremony, he said: “We are all sitting together as if we are in one theater, our sitting is nice and yours is nice, and God willing, it will be a better night.”
And Muhammad Abdo continued: “Tonight, we are in the theater of the giant Talal Maddah, and we have mercy on him and all our dead, God is Amen.”
It is worth noting that the artist, Muhammad Abdo, aroused the discontent of a number of the public after his statement about his late colleagues, Talal Maddah and Abu Bakr Salem, as he considered that they had not made a “national legacy” for themselves in art.
Muhammad Abdo returned, and apologized for what he had done, saying: “I apologize to them and their lovers and all their families and relatives. In one of the Ramadan interviews, which was a little sharp… I ask forgiveness… and I ask their followers and loved ones to excuse me.”
