As a writer and producer his talent also shines through, building an exceptional track record over the years. He has worked with artists ranging from Rudimental, Taio Cruz, The Overtones, to Lulu, Howie D (Backstreet Boys) and he continues to produce and collaborate with other name artists who all respect not just his songwriting flair, but his professionalism and focus too.

History

Ramzi was born in London, England but was raised in Lagos, Nigeria where he learnt to sing and play instruments at the age of 9. His parents, both Lebanese, were music lovers and his mother a classical piano teacher. He was known at school for his musical talent, which he excelled in winning numerous awards and performing annually at school talent contests. He also featured on a few TV shows aired on NTA, the Nigerian Television Association.

Over the years Ramzi developed his musical talent further and due to his diverse upbringing was influenced by a wide range of musical genres, which he listened to and performed.

He spent his teen years performing with bands much older than him and by the age of 17 became popular in the Lagos music scene, performing regularly at renowned live music venues. Along with being a musician Ramzi also became known as a DJ and was the resident DJ at a popular nightclub.

At 19 Ramzi returned to the UK where he studied sound engineering, midi technology and took lessons in classical piano and music theory. He started performing and making a name for himself in London on the live circuit whilst also developing his songwriting and producing skills working with other artists. It wasn’t long before Ramzi began to attract the attention of managers and record company A&R executives as an artist and songwriter.

2007 – Present

Ramzi released his first single “Alone” in July 2007, which featured a popular remix by Taio Cruz. “Alone” received strong radio and TV airplay across the UK. It achieved over 500,000 YouTube views and has been featured on numerous compilation albums.

This initial release was the springboard to a management deal and eventually record deals with 2tone Entertainment/RGS Entertainment in the UK, EMI Records in the Middle East and BBQ Records in Japan.

In early 2009 Ramzi released his first studio album “Chapter One” which included his worldwide smash hit “Love Is Blind” featuring Ash King. It is a Spanish guitar driven R&B track that fused three different languages. The music video featured actress Preeya Kalidas (East Enders, Bend It Like Beckham, Four Lions) and Sean Ryder Wolf (from the vocal group ‘Jack Pack’). The Official Music Video has achieved a phenomenal 5.4 million views on YouTube so far.

“Chapter One” peaked at number 2 on the Charts in the U.A.E. and throughout the Middle East making Ramzi a star and household name in the region. In Japan Ramzi’s lead single “Fall In Love” peaked at number 2 on the iTunes R&B chart earning him popularity in the region where the album sold a respectable number of copies. In 2010 Ramzi was awarded a Gold disc in recognition of “Chapter One’s” exceptional sales.

In 2011, after a few years of touring, collaborating and writing, Ramzi returned with his 2nd album “Touch The Sky” which featured the lead single “My Wife” and “Pretending”. “My Wife” followed in the footsteps of “Love Is Blind” gaining massive popularity and a respectable 2.3 million views on YouTube so far. This song added to his popularity in the U.A.E. and across the globe.

In the UK “Pretending” gained respectable radio airplay and has been featured on popular compilation albums. The single included remixes from Rudimental and Ts7. In Japan, Ramzi released a cover version of Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida”, recorded and produced in his own unique style, as the first single from “Touch The Sky”.

In Spring 2014 Ramzi returned with a fresh new sound and his single “Sunshine”, a soulful up-tempo track with an old school flavor. The track gained popularity in the UK and was supported at radio by the likes of Graham Norton, Tony Blackburn and Nihal. The music video featured presenter Claira Hermet.

Since then Ramzi has released follow up singles “Dance” and “Starships” and has been a featured artist on the album “Made In Dubai” by DJ Bliss which reached number 1 on the iTunes chart in the Middle East.

He is currently working on a long anticipated new album coming soon.
