Zain Bhikha

Zain was born in 1974 in Pretoria, South Africa where he started singing from a young age, though entertaining family and friends was as far as

he went. In 1994, Zain entered a singing competition on a local radio station. From thousands of entries he won the competition. This

success led to his first album 'A Way of Life' (1994). It soon became a rousing success amongst the South African Muslim community.

All proved extremely popular and began to filter abroad. And so it was that Yusuf came across one of Zain's albums and

invited him to London to work with him.
