Arab Idol Tries To Make It In America, This summer 23 year-old Mohammed Assaf won the “Arab Idol” singing competition and with his silky smooth vocals has united Arabs across the world.
Now he’s on a nationwide tour in the U.S. and is set to pack theaters across the country. Before his Chicago concert last week he reflected on his incredible journey from Gaza to America.
“My story is about a person who came from a very humble place — a place referred to as ‘the camp’ in Gaza,” said Assaf.
Assaf is a Palestinian, born in Libya. When he was five years old his family returned to Gaza to live in the Khan Younis refugee camp, where he and his six brothers and sisters call home.
