ode in remembrance of shaykh abdul qadir

the ode of imam abdullah al hadad

‏بلغ العُلا بكمالـــــــهِ
He reached the peak of greatness through his perfection

Nasheeed rendition by Muhammad Colon

In Praise of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

كرر أيها الإنسان (لَا إِلَه إِلَّا الله)

After working on this selection of songs for six and a half years, I'm incredibly excited and grateful to be able to share them with you.  This album reflects a significant growth for me, as a singer and songwriter.  Combining my lyrics with those of my teachers, and drawing on diverse musical genres from Jazz, Blues and Hard Rock, to Arabic, Indian, Turkish and East African music, I have pushed myself way out of my comfort zone into unfamiliar genres and completely new territory as an artist.  I hope you enjoy listening to them even more than I did composing them, arranging them, and recording them.
