After the success of Ragheb Alama, the company expanded to manage artists such as Maria Nadim, and collaborating with international artists such as DJ Karma, David Vendetta and Shakira.

In 2009, Backstage Production's Ragheb Alama received the Platinum Award from Virgin Megastore Middle East for his album Ba'sha'ak.
