Lebanese artist Samer Sleiman, based in Melbourne, has just released his latest single, “Men Ketr Ma Bhebak” (Because I Love You So Much). This romantic track, penned and composed by Enad El Khoury, blends heartfelt emotion with a contemporary feel, resonating strongly with audiences in both Australia and Lebanon.
Sleiman emphasizes his authentic approach to music, stating, “I only sing what I truly feel.” This philosophy shines through in “Men Ketr Ma Bhebak,” an song that eloquently captures the essence of love and longing. “This song was born from a genuine emotion,” Samer revealed in a recent interview. “I cannot perform a song unless I feel it completely.”
The new single is a pure Lebanese artistic collaboration. While Enad El Khoury handled the writing and composition, a professional team was brought in for the musical arrangement, supporting Samer’s distinctive voice with a blend of classic and modern styles.
A graduate of the Lebanese National Higher Conservatory of Music, Samer brings a mature sensibility to his work, drawing from his extensive experience in composing and singing, infused with a touch of nostalgia for his homeland.
Despite the geographical distance and the challenges of performing live in Australia, Samer views social media as a crucial bridge connecting artists with their fans. “In our era, a song that touches hearts can become a trend within hours,” he observes. “I’m fortunate to experience such wonderful interaction from my followers.” Indeed, “Men Ketr Ma Bhebak” has garnered significant positive feedback from his audience across Lebanon and Australia, with numerous comments and shares praising his emotive delivery and unique vocal style.
This release is merely the prelude to more new music. Samer announced that several new songs are ready for release soon. He also shared plans to travel to Lebanon to film a music video for one of his upcoming album tracks and hinted at potential collaborations with local artists for future duets.
Addressing his dedicated fanbase, Samer expressed his gratitude: “To everyone who has supported me, shared my song, left a comment, or attended a show – you are the real reason I keep going.”
Before his anticipated two-month trip to Lebanon, Samer will be performing several shows in Sydney, inviting his fans to join him for these special moments.
