ALiBI aka "ShezaY" is a musician who taught himself the sounds of a Guitar & Keyboard. Born in London, ALiBI is of a Bangladeshi background, has moved around alot as a youngster. His 1st love 4 music making came when he used to play around with his older brothers Yamaha keyboard, at the age of 12. As he recalls, 'My brother was a bit lucky as a kid, got everything he ever wanted at the time, That Keyboard was 1 of those things, I eventually came to master'. ALiBI was'nt always sure about his musical creativity nor confident about it within the family,... 'its a kick in the gut when those you want to support you the most either laugh or ignore what your trying to show them'! ALiBI's fate led him to a long road where he finally collaborated with his nephew, artist(Singer & MC) "MUMZY". Collaborating with MUMZY was definitly an eye opener for me. He helped me believe in myself, & here I am today'! Through out the time since we started fusing, alot has happend, more good than bad, I even learnt how to play the Guitar within this musical period of my life. Nowadays I spend alot of time on my own writing music, I find that it makes me better as one day its my ambition to be known as a live performer as well as a studio musician. I have done live gigs with Mumzy, the most funniest being in India tour, personal satisfaction from mine & Mumzy's performance in the Inspiraion fashion show in Thistle Marble Arch Hotel & most recently The Rishi Rich Showcase featuring Mumzy & H Dhami with myself on acoustic at 'Tiffin Beats', check the pix out!!!. Its hard doing this with living a normal life but its the struggles you go through that make you a stronger person in the end. I have a very supportive wife whom I love & is my no:1 fan, she believed in me since day one! As a keyboardist I look upto artists like John Lennon, Ray Charles & Rishi Rich. Most of my inspirations when playing guitar is one person only & thats 'Prince'! Mumzy & I click when we vibe, sum hot sounds seem to flow everytime. I don't really write songs much, but when I do, I make sure its told like a story. My musical creativeness has to ochestrate the lyrics in a story telling manner. I met some very nutty artists through Mumzy that I've come to know really well myelf. Taz a wicked dancer, serious, that man can move, he's definitly made out of plastic! lol. Abzy, another vocalist who is very determined & has 1 of the best voices among the StrangerZ family. Mumzy? Check his myspace out & get 2 know, seeeeeeeeeeeeen!Oh maaaaaannnnn!!! Don't know how 2 explain it, but the joy of being a Dad is so ovewhelming its still unbelievable that my son Zain has come in my life! I'm so lost 4 words the first time in my entire life!!! I tell all those man dem, trust me, its all about going thru dat atleast once in ur life, its an experience u can go thru only 2 understand it urself, its da best feelin in da world, Allah is truelly the greatest!
