About Me

Born on the caribbean island of Trinidad, Abdel was exposed to the music ministry at a tender age of 11, under Rev. Dr. Alister Alexander of Daybreak Assembly. Ministering in the youth choir over 12yrs, allowed for his spiritual growth and vocal development, opening doors of opportunities in the local gospel arena. Among the many opportunities, his greatest recognition came from singing with the acapella group “In Christ” and his solo debut under Sherwin Gardner’s “Lion Of Judah Sounds” recording label; producing a demo album “God’s Own”. God’s grace allowed him the opportunity to play the role of singer-swing/Banzai cover in the Multi-Award Winning Broadway Musical Production, The Lion King, in Australia. Between July 2003/October 2008, he has performed in the show in two major cities in Australia (Sydney and Melbourne), one in China (Shanghai) and one in France (Paris). Holding firm to scripture, Romans 8:28 “And we know all things work together for good to them that love God, to them that are the called according to his purpose”he was able to discover a new talent in film/Video Production while in Australia. Competing in an amateur film festival as an editor/cinematographer he won a few awards for the short film projects he was involved in. It is in this direction he is being lead for ministry, in addition to his music. Abdel is determine to keep the commission of Christ to spread the gospel to all the world that JESUS IS LORD.SPECIAL AWARDS ATTAINED:Roar Shorts (film festival)Best Sound Track Award -2006Best Film Editing Award -2006Best Film Award -2006Viewer Choice -2004Best Film -2004MUSICLion of Judah Best New Male Artist -2001D.A.Y.C.
