NEW ALBUM ...WHEREVER YOU ARE
Wherever You Are Album!
Tuesday 12 October 2010 at 14:06
Peace and Blessings everyone,
I can’t express the happiness and joy in knowing that we are days away from having the album – finally – released!
I know it’s taken long, and I know some of you may have developed the “Coming Soon” fatigue
Honestly, the truth behind this long delay has been due to one simple fact and nothing more, which is the systematic daily efforts of certain individuals who have worked, and continue to work tirelessly to disrupt, delay and generally do anything to stop this album from reaching you. However, I’m happy to say that they failed – miserably.I’m not shy to reveal that with this album I wish to reach a wider community; in the hope that I could, albeit in some small way, play a part in building bridges and breaking down the barriers and walls that have for far too long prevented us from truly loving and respecting one another. To convey one basic and honest truth; that ultimately, we are One and we are all from the same essence, and although we may feel ‘isolated’ and even frustrated by the things that tend to divide us, we should rejoice in knowing that through our common shared humanity there is in fact much more that unites and binds us.
To be honest, it scares me to see the amount of effort, sweat and time some people spend on trying to hurt others. Plotting away to taint the image of the ‘other’. Can we not see that although the ‘victims’ of such abuse may bear some pain for a limited time, ultimately however, the people who end up suffering the most are those very perpetrators?
It’s time for us to believe in our own healing power. Personally, I believe each and every one of us can be a healer “a smile can change a life, let’s start healing”
Regarding the album, let’s build on the momentum everyone. All the previous actions were meant to ‘damage’ and ‘slow’ us down. Let’s prove that we are ready to face any challenge and obstacle in pursuit of delivering the message of Peace — just as our ‘Teacher’ did (PBUH).
Wherever You Are, isn’t just ‘my’ album, it’s OUR album. Share it with your friends, family and the rest of the world
Let’s get the word out everywhere iA.
Thank you all so much and God bless each and every one of you for the support.
Much love to you all
Sami

Trip to New York
Recent Trip to New York and more...
Wednesday 6 October 2010 at 15:52
Peace & Blessings everyone,
I hope you’re all well. I’m going to try and keep this short as I have a plane to catch for our show in Tajikistan.
As some of you may know, we visited the US recently for a non-profit organisation called the AIC. The purpose of this visit was not to perform a ‘show’ but to lend a ‘helping hand’ to our friends over there who are working hard to promote their institute. Thankfully, the event was a success and I’d like to thank the community leaders and all those who attended for their support.
Our next stop was New York — one of my all-time favourite destinations
It’s time for me to explain what I was doing there and yes, your hunch was correct
We were there for a video shoot. In fact, we went to record some extra shots for one of the music videos that’s still in the pipeline. God-willing, it’s going to look great and hopefully I’ll get to share some pics soon.Before I conclude, I’d like to share a link from young and talented Pakistani gentleman who helped with the Hear Your Call Music video. His name is Daniyal Noorani and he is a gifted Pakistani Musician and director. You can find out more about him and his new initiative by clicking here
God bless you all
Sami
