Mohamed 'Hamada' Abdel Fatah Helal is an Egyptian singer born in Sharqia, Egypt. He now resides in Cairo. Hamada started his interest singing when he was 5 years old. He used to record his voice whilst singing on cassette tapes. Many great artists influenced Hamada, such as Abdel Halim Hafez, Mohamed Abdel Wahab and Um Kulthum.
At school, Hamada sung during the school breaks and entertainment periods. One of his friends would be playing a drum, Hamada would be singing and a girl would be dancing.
When Hamada was seven, one of his relatives heard him while he was singing and took Hamada to a musician. He learned the music basics and was encouraged. The musician told Hamada that he would introduce him to sing at a wedding of one of his relatives after three months. This was the starting point of his career.
Hamada met a popular composer called Hassan Esh Esh who introduced him to Hamid El Shaerry and presented him to a recording studio. They signed him to a contract straight away.
Hamada's first appearance as a professional singer was on High Quality album Part 3 and he participated in two songs. He has since produced four albums, his latest being Waheshni.
