Muhammad Mumith Ahmed (Bengali: মুহাম্মদ মুমিথ আহমেদ; born 18 January 1984), known professionally as Mumzy Stranger or his producing name SP (an abbreviation of Stranger Productions), is a British rapper, singer, songwriter and record producer. He made his mainstream recording debut in the summer of 2009 with his debut single "One More Dance" along with follow-up single, "Showgirl". The following year, he released Fly with Me which is the lead single from his debut album, Journey Begins.

He is the first artist of Bangladeshi descent to have entered the mainstream music industry and still remains one of the latest prospects of British-Asian R&B artists in Britain.[1] He sings in a unique style combining reggae, dancehall, R&B and soul, and in different languages including English, Bengali, Punjabi, Hindi and Arabic.

Early life

[edit]

Mumzy was born in Plaistow, Newham in East London, England on 18 January 1984 to Bangladeshi Muslim parents. He is of Bengali origin and was raised in a traditional Islamic home.[2] He is the second youngest of six in his family.[3]

In 2000, Mumzy started out in the UK garage scene at the age of 16, and was involved in pirate radio until 2003 when he left as he felt like a stranger (from which he derived his stage name).[4]

Career

[edit]

2005–08: Humble beginnings

[edit]

Mumzy was one of three finalists in BBC Asian Network's Unsung competition in 2005 with his song "Jump Up",[5][6] after a friend of his submitted his demo tape,[7] which caught the attention of Rishi Rich, a Bhangra-fusion producer who was also one of the judges for the competition.[8] Although he did not win, Mumzy kept in touch with Rishi who would comment on his potential.[9]

Two years later, as a graduate from the University of Westminster, achieving a BA (Hons) in Business Information Technology,[1] and as Rishi Rich's protègè, he released his promo singles, "Let's Party" and "Stranger" as part of the extended play, titled Rishi Rich Productions Presents: The EP which features four tracks in collaboration with H-Dhami and Rishi serving as the producer.[10]

He performed for the UK Asian Music Awards, held at Royal Festival Hall and at the Boishakhi Mela, a concert of Bangladeshi musicians; performing almost annually in both.[11]

2009: Debut single and collaborations

[edit]

Mumzy's debut single "One More Dance" was produced by Rishi Rich and was released in July 2009.[12] The single was set to be titled "One More Chance" but was later changed to "One More Dance", according to Rishi Rich.[13] His second single, "Showgirl", was released in August 2009.[7][14]

Mumzy is featured on two tracks on The Streets of Bollywood 3, a remix album by Rishi Rich, Hunterz and Kami K which mainly focuses on bringing Indian and urban music together.

Mumzy collaborated with several UK and internationally recognised desi artists, such as H-Dhami, Preeya Kalidas, Abbas Hasan and Malkit Singh.[15]

On 18 November 2010, Ahmed supported Sean Kingston at The O2 Arena.[16]

2010: Debut mixtape and album released

[edit]

Mumzy released his debut mixtape, No Stranger to This, which was put together in the course of seven days and officially released on 11 December, a day before his debut album, Journey Begins.

Mumzy and Stereo Nation are featured on the soundtrack of It's a Wonderful Afterlife. The track is a remix of a hit song by Stereo Nation, "Larl Larl Buleeya". The track is Stranger's debut on a British film soundtrack. He is also featured on the soundtrack of Toonpur Ka Super Hero, making his debut on a Bollywood film soundtrack.

In December 2010, Mumzy's debut album was Journey Begins released on in the UK.[17] Stranger performed songs from the album with a live orchestra to 600 fans and media at a one-off concert on 18 December at Stratford Circus in Stratford, London.[18] The album's lead single is "Fly With Me", produced by himself at his home studio. The single debuted at number 15 on the UK Asian Download Chart and stayed in the top 40 for more than 17 weeks but dropped off the chart at week 18.[citation needed] There are several remixes of "Fly With Me", a Grime Mix featuring Flo Dan, Gods Gift, KID & Roly; a Rishi Rich Kulcha Mix and a Bangla Mix featuring SH8S. Stranger's fourth and final single from the album is "Spaceman" featuring Wiley produced by chart topping producer Steel Banglez.

2011–12: Award nominations and Stranger Family

[edit]

At the UK Asian Music Awards' Nominations Party held at the West Midlands' super-club Gatecrasher, in Birmingham on 1 February, Mumzy was nominated for 4 awards, Best Album (Journey Begins), Best Male Act, Best Urban Act and Best Video (Fly With Me); the most for any solo act at the UK Asian Music Awards 2011.[19] He ended up winning Best Urban Act.[20]

After the release of his debut album, he released his new promotional single titled "Mama Used to Say", a collaboration with Grammy-Award winning British R&B singer, Junior, which was released on 10 March.[21] Stranger performed the single at the UK AMA with Junior.[22]

On 8 April 2011, Mumzy's single "Heartbreaker" was released as a free download.[23][24]

Much like his mentor Rishi Rich, Mumzy collaborated with his new protègè and the first addition to the Stranger Family, Junai Kaden,[25] on the track "Aaja Mere Naal". The track is Junai Kaden's debut single and produced by Mumzy himself. The single was released on 14 April 2011 and entered the UK Asian Download Chart at no. 7, making it his very first top 10 single.[26]

In 2012, Mumzy officially launched Stranger Family, a music collective with Junai Kaden, Char Avell, Tasha Tah and Ramee.[27] The group released their debut single, "Ghetto Refix" in 2012, which was a new version of Kaden's track "Ghetto" from his album From Me to You.[28]

In November 2012, Stranger Family was scheduled to tour the UK alongside Canadian-South Asian group Culture Shock in the XOXO Tour, with the two groups even collaborating on a single, "XOXO", for promotion of the tour.[29][30] However, due to poor ticket sales and issues regarding managing from Tiffin Beats Records, the tour was cancelled[31] and would eventually lead to the breaking up of the Stranger Family.[32][33]

2013–17: Independent success

[edit]

Mumzy is the featured artist on Nafees' song titled "Sazaa", which went to number 1 on The Official Asian Download Chart in its first week of release, the song was written by Yazz Nasir. He has also been to India with Tasha Tah to feature in a song called "Kurbaan". The track was made before, but the song was remade for Bollywood and the video has been shown on B4U Music.[34]

In 2015, as a crossover collaboration between the UK and the U.S., Mumzy featured on two promotional tracks with Adam Saleh and Sheikh Akbar (formerly known as TrueStoryASA), titled Diamond Girl and the other (without Sheikh Akbar), titled Tomorrow's Another Day.

After leaving his previous label, Tiffin Beats Records, Mumzy released a new record, "Love Comfort", as part of his new label he created, Timeless London.

Similar to how Mumzy launched artists as part of his Stranger Family collective in 2012,[28][27] Mumzy began launching new artists with his comeback with "Love Comfort". "Love Comfort" featured himself and a new female artist he signed, Shayma, and was produced by Lyan Roze, a producer signed to Timeless London who would go on to produce many of Mumzy's future singles.[35][36] Mumzy then signed Rupika Vaidya, a Sweden-based singer, and was a featured artist on her debut single, "Karle Manmani" in 2015.[37] In 2016, Mumzy signed Nish, who featured in the Bangla Refix of Ahmed's single "Jaan Atki", which was produced by Lyan Roze and would go on to become No. 1 on the UK ITunes World Chart.[35][36][38] In late 2015, Mumzy Stranger featured in Iksy's parody music video alongside Corner Shop Show, Humza Arshad, Bengali Blitz, Puremovements and Char Avell.

2018–present: Vertigo and new projects

Mumzy Stranger was featured on Dutch-Pakistani F1rstman's collaborative single "Dance" alongside fellow UK South Asian artists Raxstar, H-Dhami & Juggy D.[41][42] The single, described as starting a "global desi movement",[42][43] became successful and would go on to feature on Spotify's Global X playlist and win Best Collaboration at the 2019 BritAsia TV Music Awards.[44] The five would also later release a remix featuring Arjun to coincide with the 2019 Cricket World Cup[45] with new lyrics to match the cricket theme.[42]

Mumzy featured on Nish's debut album Identity, co-producing and singing on the lead single "Love Lost" and producing the song "Maa Baba".[46] After Identity, Mumzy was featured on Master-D's summer single "Tumi Jaio Na",[47] both of which are considered part of an "urban Bangla movement".[42][43]

On 18 October 2019, Mumzy released his second studio album, Vertigo. The album, with hip hop and R&B songs in multiple languages, features Mumzy's previous collaborators Nish, Raxstar, Arjun, F1rstman, and Lyan as well as J Riley, Snap Capone, Corleone and Inkra Dabelle.[48]

In 2020, Mumzy Stranger was featured on "Gallan Kardi", a remix of Jazzy B's hit song "Dil Luteya", from the Bollywood film Jawaani Jaaneman.[49]

In July 2020, Mumzy's 'Habibti' reached #4 on the Billboard 'Top Triller Global' list.[50]
