Who is Sami Yusuf? To those in the Middle East, England, and North America, he needs no introduction. Sami Yusuf, a 32-year old British Singer, Songwriter, is well known for making and promoting devotional songs in many languages, especially English.
He is best known for the singles “Al-Mu’Allim”, “Mother”, Asma Allah”, “Ya Mustafa” and “Allahu”, and has been named Islam’s Biggest Rock Star by the Time Magazine, as well as the King of Islamic Pop by Aljazeera.
Yusuf produced his fourth and latest album “Salaam” in 2012, which continues to spread love, peace, and unity.
He has a huge audience with a large and young fan base, and has sold over 15 million albums worldwide. He has inspired many by his spiritual and meaningful lyrics and his interpretation of the current state of the world.
This will be Sami Yusuf’s first visit to Guyana. He has performed in numerous countries across the world, including: the United States, Canada, France, Belgium, Austria, Spain, Denmark, Greece, Germany, Netherlands, Bosnia, Turkey and the MENA region.
He will be accompanied to the land of many waters by a 50-member cast, inclusive of musicians from all across the world including Barbados.
Like the ‘Fulfillment’ concert, this event is expected to feature clean and family oriented and religiously linked entertainment.
Sami Yusuf’s concert is definitely one not to miss. If you have never heard of his music, “google” might be useful in that regard, and who knows, by the time Yusuf touches down in Guyana he might have a large fan base here.
