From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yuri Mraqqadi (in Arabic: يوري مرقّدي ) is a Lebanese singer of Armenian descent,[1] born 17 December 1969. He studied production and became a professional advertising designer in addition to music.[2]

He became famous after his hit single "عربىٌ أنا" ("Arabiyyon ana" meaning An Arab I Am) which jump-started his musical career. His follow-up song "المرأه العربية" ("Al-Mar'a al-Arabiyyah" meaning The Arabic Woman) had a similar pan-Arab success.[3] Between 2001 and 2005, Mraqqadi released four studio albums. After a period of hiatus,[4] he has returned for new materials of his own composition starting 2011.[5] and is preparing a new album.[6]
