In 1995 he received his Masters Degree for his thesis: "The Egyptian Song in the Second Half of the Twentieth Century". Not satisfied with just a master degree, Ehab worked toward his Doctorate in Music and Arabic singing, completed in April 2002. The doctorate was entitled "The Methods of Performing Arabic Singing in Egypt during the second half of the last century".
He is seen as one of the top singers in the Arab world, especially revered in his hometown. Arguably, his greatest exposure as an artist came on February 26, 2001, when he performed for 50,000 people at a benefit concert to raise funds for Iraqis who were maimed during the Gulf War in Baghdad.
Critics say the successes of Ehab albums year after year can be attributed to his warm voice, good lyrics, and ability to find talented composers.
In 2006, Ehab denied rumors that he had an affair with the model that appears with him in the video "Alath Kilmit Hub" ("The Sweetest Love Word"). He said that she lives in Germany and came to Egypt solely to work as a model. She was born to an Egyptian father and a German mother, he added.

نفسي يوم اصرحله بكذا حاجة
شكله ومضيعني واللي مانعني ما عندي دليل
حكاياته مش كاملة اه يا ناري
شكله عامل عمله مش داري
حاسس ان في حاجة خلاص مش صح وكده تمثيل
قلبي مش مرتاحله وفي حاجة
نفسي يوم اصرحله بكذا حاجة
حكاياته مش كاملة اه يا ناري
شكله عامل عمله مش داري
حاسس ان في حاجة خلاص مش صح وكده تمثيل
ياما قالي ياما قالي ع اللي جواه
وبرضه مبصدقهوش
يحلف وانا ليه حاسس في عنيه بحاجات بتقول ما أمنلوش
ياما قالي ياما قالي ع اللي جواه
وبرضه مبصدقهوش
يحلف وانا ليه حاسس في عنيه بحاجات بتقول ما أمنلوش
قلبي مش مطمن ومخون
لما ابص في عينة تتلون
نفسي اي قليل لا يا ليل لا ههضيع أوي من اللي انا فيه
والله لو بايديه انا اسيبه
بس غالي عليه وده عيبه
حبه اليه مسكتني ومثبتني وهعمل ايه
قلبي مش مطمن ومخون
لما ابص في عينة تتلون
نفسي اي قليل لا يا ليل لا ههضيع أوي من اللي انا فيه
والله لو بايديه انا اسيبه
بس غالي عيه وده عيبه
حبه اليه مسكتني ومثبتني وهعمل ايه
ياما قالي ياما قالي ع اللي جواه

The song "Ameel Amla" by Ehab Tawfik explores the singer's inner emotional turmoil and distrust towards an individual. The lyrics express a desire to confide in this individual about something that is causing the singer distress, but there is doubt whether this person is trustworthy enough to confide in. The individual is described as someone who is manipulative and possibly putting on a facade, and the singer's heart and mind are both unsettled by their presence. Throughout the song, the singer repeats that they have a feeling that something is not right and that they are being deceived.
The lyrics demonstrate an internal struggle and the complicated emotions that come with feelings of mistrust and uncertainty towards someone. The line "وبرضه مبصدقهوش" (yet I don't believe him) highlights the inner conflict that the singer is experiencing: despite their suspicion, they want to believe the individual's promises and oaths. This inner turmoil is further emphasized by the repetition of the chorus, which serves to express the singer's frustration and confusion.
Overall, "Ameel Amla" is a raw and powerful expression of the inner emotional turmoil that comes with feelings of mistrust and uncertainty towards someone, and the difficulty of confiding in others.

قلبي مش مرتاحله وفي حاجة
My heart is unsettled and there is something bothering it
نفسي يوم اصرحله بكذا حاجة
I wish to confess to it about something
شكله ومضيعني واللي مانعني ما عندي دليل
His appearance confuses me and I don't have any evidence to prevent it
حكاياته مش كاملة اه يا ناري
His stories are incomplete, oh my fire
شكله عامل عمله مش داري
His appearance is doing its job unaware
حاسس ان في حاجة خلاص مش صح وكده تمثيل
I feel like something is not right and it's just a playacting
ياما قالي ياما قالي ع اللي جواه
He keeps telling me about what's inside him
وبرضه مبصدقهوش
Yet, I don't believe him
يحلف وانا ليه حاسس في عنيه بحاجات بتقول ما أمنلوش
He swears, but I feel there are things in his eyes that he doesn't trust
قلبي مش مطمن ومخون
My heart is not at ease and confused
لما ابص في عينة تتلون
When I look into his eyes they change color
نفسي اي قليل لا يا ليل لا ههضيع أوي من اللي انا فيه
I wish for a little peace in this chaos, so I won't lose myself
والله لو بايديه انا اسيبه
And if it were up to me, I would leave him
بس غالي عليه وده عيبه
But he's dear to me, and that's my weakness
حبه اليه مسكتني ومثبتني وهعمل ايه
His love has stuck and anchored me, what will I do?
بس غالي عيه وده عيبه
But he's dear to me, and that's my weakness
