It isn’t everyday that Canadian independent urban artists achieve Top 20 radio and video success on their initial offerings. For Ottawa-based R&B singer Massari and record label Capital Prophet Records, this achievement is the result of many years of hard work and perseverance.

The 24-year old Sagittarius, born in Beirut, Lebanon, moved to Montreal at the age of 10 and at 13 he moved to Ottawa where he currently resides. The trilingual artist – he speaks English, French and Arabic fluently – cites Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, and Aretha Franklin as musical influences. However, growing up he has been exposed to various styles of music and because of that his biggest influence is legendary Arabic singer George Wassouf. “I sing from my heart and George Wassouf taught me to do that", says Massari about how this legendary singer has affected his music.

In 2002, Massari recorded and released “Spitfire” which garnered heavy rotation on Ottawa radio stations. Since then, Massari has been steadily writing and developing his sound and is back in 2005 with his self-titled debut album set for release on May 31st, 2005 through MapleNationWide/Universal. The lead single off the release “Smile For Me” features former Bad Boy Entertainment recording artist Loon. “I’m definitely very selective about the records I get on. It didn’t matter if he was an established artist or not, it was just the quality of the record, the quality of the music that made me want to get involved”, says Loon about his involvement with Massari and the Capital Prophet Records crew. “I’m very proud to be one of the first Canadian male R&B singers to record with a major recording artist from the States”, says Massari. The end result was a hit single that spent 24 weeks on the Top 40 chart, peaking at #18 (BDS CHR) in Canada. Canadian award-winning music video director RT! was responsible for making the “Smile For Me” video one of the hottest urban videos by a Canadian artist. The video was immediately added to heavy rotation at MuchMusic, MuchVibe, and MTV Canada. Canada and the United States were the first to play “Smile For Me”, however other countries such as Germany, Australia, Brazil and the UK have begun playing the hit song.

With the recent release of Massari’s much-anticipated second single “Be Easy”, the pressure was on to keep the momentum going in the weeks leading up to the debut album release. “Be Easy” received early support from radio stations across Canada. The video, once again directed by music video director RT!, was instantly added to heavy rotation across the board on MuchMusic, MuchVibe and MTV2 and added into “Reaction” rotation at Musique Plus.

For this record, Massari worked closely with the Capital Prophet Records production team comprised of Da Heala and Lynx. “Their vibe is a perfect match for my sound and style”, explains Massari. The album draws influences from his middle-eastern origins. “Because of my background, my music is heavily influenced with middle-eastern melodies. Over the past few years so many artists are trying to bring Arabic styles into their music, but mine is authentic.” Along with its culturally rich sound the album with its upbeat club-style tracks, mid-tempo joints and smooth ballads pays special tribute to the ladies. “My music is made for the ladies because that’s where I get my inspiration. You’ll notice a lot of the music is upbeat and positive. Women give off so much energy; it’s hard not to be inspired by them.”

Massari’s self-titled debut album hits store shelves May 31st, 2005.

[SensationalNour]

yeah...he is going to be at Elysium on Saturday July 30th...that's a club in Detroit...I heard it's a good club and that it's going to be packed :)

~~Nour~~

[Savoshka]

sooooooooooooooo HOW DID IT GO i didn't go cuz i went to a wedding party.................it was fun! YAY! so who meet who and what went on i'd love to know

[Kikhwa]

That cheesy unfinished 'stache and goatee combo is such a turn off.

He sure does have purty eyes though.

[Rita]

yeah...he is going to be at Elysium on Saturday July 30th...that's a club in Detroit...I heard it's a good club and that it's going to be packed :)

~~Nour~~

Did you go to Meow 2 night? If so, was it fun? I guess I'll just call and ask 2 be on the VIP list 2morrow. If anyone wants 2 go, I'll be more than happy to include you. I haven't been out 2 the bar on Saturday in so long. I might as well do something.

[user_1009]

Actually hes gonna be at Elysium on August 28 not july 30th...

[pfizzle]

it was straight, to small of a dance area, and the bitc hes there kept on bumping into me when he would come on stage, so I elbowed

[proudchaldean]

Actually hes gonna be at Elysium on August 28 not july 30th...

Ill be there...whos rollin??

[Hadeer]

the bitches there kept on bumping into me when he would come on stage, so I elbowed

Very resourceful Patrick, I like how you used what I taught you!

[RaNoOoBiE420]

it was alright. . .like patrick said, it was too small of a place. . .im surprised the girls there didn't strip down for him. . .they were literally fighting to see him *haha it was funny

[Teffo]

i grabbed his arse lmaooo...it was fun ;) *but he doesn't have junk in the trunk like jerkface

[Rita]

Yea thanx Noor, I called the owner today and he was wondering what damn concert was going on tonight, LOL. It's on Sun, Aug 28th!

[FAsHiOnDiVa112]

I went to Meow too, but I left at around 1:30. *I was wondering how long he stayed there after that and if people actually got a chance to meet him. *My friends and I waited in line for about an hour and didn't get to meet him so we just left. *When he comes to Detroit hopefully things will be more organized.

[Teffo]

there was a line? *lmaoooo i was too drunk to see anydamn thing!

[SensationalNour]

Oh ya....my fault...someone told me it was July 30th at Elysium....but now I found out it's August 28th at Elysium...but on Friday...I went to see Massari...IT WAS PACKED...I have never seen this many arabs IN MY LIFE...I saw so many beautiful girls and the most gorgeous men ALIVE...a lot of people had amazing outfits...it was cool though *;)

~~Nour~~

~~Nour~~

[meme913]

Yea it was really packed....yea he was still there he left at like 2. Rita even if you had VIP there they made you wait...this club was retarded but oh well you have to make the best of it. If you have VIP you wait in line, they ran out of gray goose. lol....but when shits like that you have to have *a drink dance and get over it.

[Hadeer]

I heard everyone and their momma's had VIP

[SensationalNour]

After Massari left from Club Meow he went to this restaurant named Windsor Palace which is owned by Chaldeans to say hello to some of his friends because my family owns the arabic store on the corner and my cousins told me they saw him at around 2 am walking into Windsor Palace :)

~~Nour~~

[Rita]

Well I know when he's at Elyisum, I'll have VIP and I won't wait in line. I have a VIP card, I never wait no matter what's going on. BTW, they don't hand those out at Elysium. If you have VIP there, you have 2 get a booth.

[meme913]

Meow is a reatarded club even if you have a booth they made you wait. They said they hit compacity. How does a booth that you paid for hit the compacity if your not in it? I heard they let people in that didn't have tickets in the beginning....they were just very unorginazed. Let's hope elysium is better.

[LiL BiT]

Omg He Suckss!!!! just tell me what is so good about him? he sounds so gay he looks awful too..

[caz]

loool well u dont like him do u lool *:eh:


i love his voice and i love his look its veryyy attractive to me but then im into those kind of guys with the shaved look *;)

hes really good though hehe

me and teffo were gonna go see him today, but there will be another time in the future *:jive: *maybe danny will come with us and bare to stand him sing loool *:love:

[pfizzle]

he's not that bad...

[meme913]

SO how was it? i decided to skip this one out. So, was it better than when he was at Meow?
