[edit] Biography
Mohamed Hamaki (Arabic: محمد حماقي; born Mohamed Ibrahim Hamaki in Cairo, on November 04, 1975) is an Egyptian singer. His first appearance to audience was through his first album "Khallena N'eesh" (Let's Live!) in 2003 featuring 10 songs all arranged by the famous arranger Tarek Madkour, who discovered and introduced Hamaki. Hamaki shot one song included in this first album "Betedhak" (Are You Laughing?).
Hamaki stayed nearly 2 years after the release of his first album that is produced by DeltaSound - that was a great success - not releasing any new songs until he released his single "Yana Yanta" (Either Me or You!) and shot it. After that it was reported that he decided to break up with audio producer Tarek Madkour and working on his own without him and with his same producer Nassif Kauzman the owner of DeltaSound because Madkour has been always busy working on songs for other famous singers. However, these rumors have been denied as Madkour stated on his official site that he will recooperate with Hamaki in his new album.
Months later, he released his second album "Kheles El Kalam" (All The Words Have Finished!) in 2006 to achieve an unbelievable success and be awarded with the Platinum CD for being the best selling middle eastern artist for year 2006. Hamaki worked mainly in this album with his friend Hatem Abdel-Aziz or "Tooma" as he used to be called, who replaced Madkour's leading role in Hamaki's work under the umbrella of DeltaSound.
The song "Wahda Wahda" (Little By Little) which was included in the album and was the soundtrack song of the movie "Ga'alatny Mogreman" was shot featuring the movie star Ahmed Helmi and aired on TV as soon as the album was released. It achieved a great success and wide popularity among different audiences. The song "Ahla Haga Feki" (The Best Thing About You) was remixed by DJ.Idriss and shot some time after the album release. In the clip, the Rapper Perry Mystique was there with Hamaki. The clip is also produced by DeltaSound and was shot in Dubai,UAE.
