Eddie Masih - I Remember

After covering Hallelujah by Alexandra Burke he was nominated in the World Music Online Radio Charts, where he won 3rd place, not to mention being the only UK act in the top 10. This exposure allowed him to accumulate a large fan-base that has taken him to radio interviews; tours and huge events such as The Birmingham Soho OscarsThe Oracle Trust Ball and London where he has opened for UK Boy band The Wanted.
Eddie Masih is a 19 year old musician from Birmingham, England who has been pursuing his music career since his early teens. He has recently released his new Funky House single I Remember, which is attracting a lot of support. 

I thought I’d catch up with him to find out more about his journey.

'I’m as a model, singer and song-writer; music has always been my passion. But unfortunately at a young age I developed cancer which stopped me from singing. 

'From that moment on I decided to teach myself again and I’ve never stopped since, singing and songwriting based on my life experiences.'

'I started like anyone else with doing videos locally, but luckily they’ve spread global and ever since then things have progressed taking me to gigs, radio appearances, tour, newspapers and a lot more and I’m hoping to keep pushing it as much as possible until I reach my dream.'

‘I’ve worked with a lot of UK rappers, but my dream would to be to work with my idols, either be Mariah Carey or Stevie wonder, too be honest I’ve got too many people I would love to work with or even meet. '

'My music represents love and life and faith. I believe love is the only thing that can be given and received freely. I always keep god in my music as he’s kept me strong through everything in life, and I think it’s me being different what attracts listeners to me.’

‘I’ve learnt that this industry is not just a hobby but something you’ve got to work on 24/7 and always push yourself. When you’re deep in the music industry it can break down your confidence but you learn to never give up on faith. There are loads of people that inspire me, seriously, I could name so many. 

'I've learnt so much from artists including vocal techniques, especially from Mariah Carey. Overall he would say that ‘no matter how bad your life starts out you can always make something huge out of yourself.’

In the future we can ‘expect a lot’ he says, he continues ‘I‘m doing TV work, radio work and new releases, a lot of upcoming gigs and I’m close to signing a couple of life changing contracts so you should be hearing a lot more from me.’
