Meet Omar Kamal, the Palestinian Frank Sinatra

It’s not the first time we hear of a Palestinian who paved his own path to glory. The Palestinian diaspora led many of its citizens to universality; many Palestinians managed to express their struggle through artistic expression.

Omar Kamal, Sinatra of Palestine as people call him, followed the paths of Mahmoud Darwish, Mohamed Assaf, and Rafif Zeyada. Kamal grew up in the small city of Nablus and moved to the UK to conduct his Master’s degree. He sings different genres that belong to different cultures. Recently, he signed a record deal with Sony Music Middle East.

Watch this video below that shows his flawless singing skills that’ll make you go “yalahwi”:
