Rashed Al-Majed

Rashed Al-Majed (Arabic: راشد الماجد; born 27 July 1969[1]) is a Saudi singer, actor, musician, and record producer.

He has performed numerous concerts in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, France, and the United Kingdom.

In addition, he is one of the largest producers in the Middle East, owning the Art Jazeera channel and a 50% stake in Platinum Records with MBC Group.

[2] Almajid's artistic journey started at the age of 15, specifically when his teacher Hamad Al-Hamad appreciated his talent and predicted a bright future for him.

Almajid's first song Hilwa Ya Al Bahrainiya (You Pretty Bahraini girl) was broadcast through Bahrain TV in the show Bab Asindibad (Sinbads Door).

Some of the most famous hits from these albums include: Jatini Taqoli, Sayyad Al-Ghawani, Qasat Daiaa Abaid, Dai’atni, Wadatni, etc.

That same year, Almajid experimented with acting on the set of La Lilzawjat (TV series), but did not receive positive feedback from the viewers.

Some of the notable songs of that album include: Sawlifak, Weinak Habibi, Wahshtni, Tafnan, Ash Min Shafak, Al-Mahba, etc.

In late 1997 and early 1998, Almajid released two new records: Asaudia (for the celebration of the Saudi football team reaching the World Cup) and Tadhak Aldunya.

The most distinct characteristics of Almajid's music emerged between 1997 and 2001 under the supervision of Kuwaiti producer Mishal Al-Arouj and co-production with Tarek Akif.

Throughout these years, he was able to expand Arabic music and establish a wide fan base throughout the Persian Gulf region and North Africa.
