In 2002, Wehbe released her first album, titled Houwa El-Zaman (هو الزمن, "It Is Time"), which became a commercial success, in part thanks to the popularity of her first single "Agoul Ahwak" (أقول أهواك, "I Say I Love You").
Her second album Baddi Eesh (بدي عيش, "I Want to Live") was released in 2005 and lived up to expectations due to the success of its lead single "Ya Hayat Albi." Released after the assassination of Lebanese politician Rafik Hariri, the title single of the album is about "freedom, considered to be among the most basic of human rights".[4] Her follow-up single became her biggest hit to date, "Ana Haifa" (أنا هيفاء, "I Am Haifa"), which became her novelty song. In 2006 she released a follow up single "Bus al-Wawa" (بوس الواوا, "Kiss the booboo"), from her upcoming album Baby Haifa, to be released at the end of 2008 or early in 2009. The song was later used in a Pepsi advertisement. The song was also voted Song of the Year in 2006 by Radio Scope and Sawt Al Musika.
