Aladeen

Born in June 1990, and finding his passion for music at just 7 years old when he started recording drums and vocals on a tape recorder, Palestinian-American Singer-Songwriter, Rapper, Dancer and Music Producer Aladeen learned to produce and perform multiple styles and genres of music and often combining them in a single song. Starting out just performing and recording Arabic Folkloric music and faith-based music as a child, Aladeen was introduced to rap when he was 16 and gradually began discovering other genres of music and rekindled his love of dancing through hip hop dance styles and the popular middle eastern dance known as dabke. Early in his adulthood, he discovered and fell in love with the sounds of Michael Jackson, James Brown & Stevie Wonder, the three who would become his biggest vocal and performing influences throughout his career, along with studying the rap styles varying from DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, Eminem, Lupe Fiasco, and many more, Aladeen fuses these contemporary pop styles with his Arabic background to create an eclectic and original sound. His goal in music is to bridge gaps between cultures, generations and faiths and be a positive influence and inspiration for all ages and audiences.
