About NOURI
Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. When I was 9 I performed at my school talent quest and sung ‘When you believe’ by Whitney and Mariah and received a standing ovation. That was the day I knew I wanted to become a singer and have been chasing that feeling ever since 🥹
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Britney Spears, The Essential Britney Spears Christina Aguilera, The Collection: Christina Aguilera Whitney Houston, Whitney: The Greatest Hits I grew up listening to all of their music, huge fans of not only their music and voices but their stage presence. All icons! I learnt how to sing by listening to Christina and Whitney. They’re my childhood & the reason I wanted to sing & be on stage.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Where Do We Go From Here” It was my debut release. It’s so special because of the impact it had. I was born in a Syrian refugee camp and one day I got a video back from the same camp I was born in and they were singing to it and so happy. Huge 360 moment I’ll never forget 😭
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Singing the US national anthem at not only 1 but 2 NBA games in LA just after the announcement of 7 countries that were banned from entering the US (Syria being one of them.. and that’s on my passport 👀). Classic moment.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? A lot of great artists that I want to collaborate with. Performing at Madison square garden, winning a Grammy and an Oscar.. also playing a marvel character.. there’s a bunch but it keeps me busy and excited 🤷🏽♀️😅
