Billboard Arabia September Cover Star Ayed Is Carrying the Torch Forward In the Lineage of Khaleeji Music


Billboard Arabia September cover star Ayed is carrying the torch forward in Khaleeji music.

Following this accolade, Ayed collaborated with Khaled Al Muthafar, a Kuwaiti performing artist, in the song “A’lam al-U’shaq” (The World of Lovers). This evolution can be traced through the EP Bel-Mout Ja(A Hard Time Coming), then the two LPs, Thaman Al-Alam(The Price of Pain) and Kol Al-Khata(All the Mistakes), as well as several singles like “Rdy” (transliteration for “Inferior”), a late 2023 release that achieved remarkable success and propelled Ayed to the top of the charts. Most lyricists involved are part of a new generation of talent.” The composers Rakan and Yasser Bou Ali have been key to Ayed’s journey, shaping his sense of sound over the years.
