Exhilarating, captivating and mind-blowing are just some of the words that people are using to describe the recent UrFilez launch event. Academy and Grammy Award-Winner Jennifer Hudson, Grammy Award-Winner James Ingram and other Top Global Artists headlined the event.
It was a thrilling night on the 26th of September at the Ritz Carlton in the Kingdom of Bahrain and ‘UrFilez Launch Event’ was the flavor. UrFilez has recently launched itself as the Middle East’s new digital music service with content from major labels like Sony Music Entertainment, Warner Music Group, Universal Music Group and EMI Music. Celebrating partnerships with such big names and endorsed by some of the most spectacular artists in the world, the guests were expecting a spectacular show- and they got just that. Indian Pop Star, Sophie Chaudry was there to perform at the launch along with soul legend James Ingram, Jennifer Hudson, rapper Lazee, Somi, Daniel De Bourg and more in the presence of HRH Sheikh Abdullah and Island/Def Jam CEO LA Reid.
The acts were all mind blowing, to say the least. The incredibly talented Sophie captivated and mesmerized the crowd with her powerful performance. Lazee with his impressive energy had fabulous stage presence. And Jennifer Hudson was as she is; so effortless with singing, no matter what the song, making it sound like nothing ever heard before.
After listening to some musical appetizers, it was then time to get a taste of the main course. Antonio “L.A.” Reid, the Chairman of Island/ Def Jam Music Group and three-time Grammy Award-winning record executive, songwriter, and record producer, was the guest speaker.
“… it’s fantastic that Hassan and the team have managed to create something that will help to revolutionize the way music is experienced in this market, a market where – until now – people have struggled to get hold of the content they want.”
