Khaled Selim, Pop, Rap, Rock and More



Khaled Selim sounds as good live as good as he is on CD. See him sing here live on Arabic, Spanish and English. This has to be one of the coolest young Arab singers, he just makes things sound cool. He does not need playback or some rhymes. His voice and words are the show. Unlike many Arab voices Khaled does not hide behind the music while they breathe.

Khaled Selim does not really get tons of coverage, but he is one of the hottest Arab singer right now. Last year, he released two albums one pop, rap and rock. Them a religious album for Madrast Al Hob, with Mostafa Hosny, a religious themed show about life and being the best you can be that airs in Ramadan.

I like the little stories Khaled told about his album and how some of the songs came to life...especially, his hit song Ad3y 'Aleek Bi Eih. Another song was meant for a female singer who turned it down and Khaled Selim took it and turned it into a hit with his amazing vocals. Some question Khaled's choice of outfits, and that's fair as we all have tastes, but when it comes to his music he reaches to all of us

Khaled is making Arabic music better by making it both upbeat and slow, his voice can handle both styles as well as fine English rap and Spanish romance songs. His Arabic pronunciation is as fine as his Spanish and English.
