Early life
Azami is of Bangladeshi descent. He went to a primary school in London, secondary schools in three countries, and graduated with a BSc in Physics with Business and Management, and PGCE from the University of Manchester.[2]

He sings in a number of languages, including English, Bengali, Arabic and Urdu.[2]
In November 2006, he performed at the Global Peace and Unity Event at the ExCeL Exhibition Centre in London.[8]
In 2013, after taking a five-year hiatus, Azami is due to return with a new music video and album under British record label UMA Global. In July 2014, his single "Allahu" was released. In August 2014, he was interviewed by Sunny and Shay Grewal on BBC London 94.9.[9] In July 2014, he performed at Eid in the Square.[10]
