Hamid Al Shaeri

Hamid Al Shaeri is a Libyan-Egyptian musician and singer who rose to prominence in the Arab music scene, particularly during the 1980s, with a career that has spanned over four decades. Born in Benghazi, Libya, Al Shaeri later moved to Egypt where he became a significant figure in the evolution of contemporary Arabic music. By infusing traditional Arabic tunes with modern pop and electronic elements, he is often credited as one of the pioneers who brought the synthesis of Eastern and Western music to a broader audience in the region.

Al Shaeri's ability to blend diverse genres and his use of synthesizers have earned him the title of the "Godfather of Arab pop". With a discography rich in both hits and deep cuts, albums like "The SLAM! Years: 1983 - 1988" exemplify his work during a transformative era in Arabic music. His recent releases, many of which are a part of the renowned Habibi Funk series, highlight his lasting influence and innovation. Tracks such as "الحلو في كل مكان" and "غيرت التاريخ" showcase his melodic talents and deft production, continuing to strike a chord with both nostalgic audiences and new generations exploring the fusion of Arabic music with modern sensibilities.
