[1][2][3] He is best known for his 2013 single "Can't Let Go", as well his international hit "Habibi (I Need Your Love)" credited to Shaggy, Mohombi, Faydee and Costi.
[4] Faydee was discovered online at the age of 19 by Ronnie Diamond,[5][non-primary source needed] owner / founder of record label Buckle Up Entertainment.
[6][non-primary source needed] After signing with Buckle Up, Faydee wrote several songs and, in the process, honed his writing, production and recording techniques.
[11] The positive response to these releases landed Faydee at the forefront of the Australian music industry within a short time of entering the market.
Meanwhile, Faydee used the power of the internet to reach an international audience, and while progressing in the Australian market, was also able to develop a grassroots following all around the world.
In 2013, Faydee released R&B crossover hit "Laugh Till You Cry",[12] primarily as a way to reach members of his audience who identified with urban music, in a time when dance/EDM was dominating the charts.
[13] "Laugh Till You Cry" was followed up by a series of similarly successful releases, including "Can't Let Go"[14] and "Maria",[15] which both earned significant airplay on commercial radio in several international territories.
In 2014, Faydee released the bilingual English/Arabic song "Habibi (I Need Your Love)", which would go on to become a major turning point in his career, earning him accolades such as his first appearance on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, as well as a BMI Award for his writing on the record.
[17] Also in late 2015, Faydee released his single "Sun Don't Shine", which marked his return to collaboration with producer Divy Pota.
It included the title single "Legendary", fan favourites "Amari", "If I Didn't Love You", "Ya Linda" and "Jealous".
2016 also saw him release a number of successful records, including "Love in Dubai" with DJ Sava, "Nobody" with Kat Deluna and Leftside, "Believe" with German rapper Kay One.
