The UAE has finally found a star of their own who can literary sing in any Arab country and have a million people tune in. Hussain El Jasmi came to sing in 2001 and he was that guy that came from nowhere to sing and boy did we listen. Then he did another song in 2004.
Leaving his Gulf style to go mainstream in Egypt where he did Egyptian songs that were also popular at his home. His singing Egyptian made him a star there and in most Arab countries. He did not make music videos, he rarely make any, but he makes good songs that live on their own. Hussain El Jasmi is about the only Arab star not obsessed about making music videos. His stuff gets played over and over and you actually go to buy his CDs.
In 2006 he became the first no Egyptian singer to sing a theme song for a blockbuster movie "Al Raheena" and that song was popular too and established him as a contender. This year he was in Morocco and performed for a 100 thousand concert goers, he treat them to a new song in Moroccan dialect. The people went wild and the song was a smash hit even in other Arab countries.
Hussain El Jasmi works with composers and lyricists as well as poets all over the Arab world, he is the nice guy that everyone wants to work with him, he seems so selfless and he strikes me as someone who is in it not for the money. He enjoys doing it and we do enjoy his style. other than being known for his music, Hussain El Jasmi did a weight reduction procedure where he dropped some significant weight without losing his voice or his most loyal/casual fans.
Here's a voice that keeps inventing himself without ever making a music video with naked ladies or a new pair of jeans.
