Ibrahim al Hakami, Saudi Arabia Muse



This young Saudi singer that shot to fame when he won the Star academy title for season three. And then he made couple of music video with no significant success. His take on pop was not well received, but his voice is pretty good. His ability to perform songs from the Guld and old Arab melodies helped win him the title.

Ibragim Al Hakmi's inspiration comes from two female Arab singers how were icons of their time. Fayaza Ahmad, and Tunisian Zikra, that passed way in a tragic accident/conspiracy. Many don't like Ibrahim not for reasons he cannot change or have nothing to do with.

First some don't like Saudis winning the title. Others hate him for winning over Shahed Barmada, the once in a lifetime singer with a golden voice and an amazing sense of emotions and style (I cannot help it, I am a fan). None the less, both singers are still around and both are doing well.

I do not hate Mr. Hakami, I just think that she has a lot to offer but so far I have seen very little.
