About Karim

Karim Rushdy – Artist Bio

Karim Rushdy is a global artist with a unique voice and vision—born in Haiti, raised across India, the USA, and Canada, and rooted in Egyptian, Persian, Irish, and Scottish heritage. Now based in Stratford, Ontario with his Korean-Swedish wife and growing family of four children, Karim is building something much bigger than music—he’s laying the foundation for a new kind of record label.

Known for blending soul-stirring lyrics with the energy of hip-hop, Karim has become a voice of clarity in a noisy world. His songs uplift, educate, and invite reflection, drawing listeners of all ages into a journey of healing and hope. His collaborations with Nabil on the Nabil & Karim albums gained global recognition within the Bahá’í community, inspiring young people worldwide to engage with music that matters.

After years of performing and mentoring youth, Karim laid the first brick in his next chapter by building a physical studio space in Stratford, Ontario. Now, in step two of his vision, he’s fully investing in himself as an artist—releasing 24 values-driven songs this year that speak to truth, justice, freedom, and unity.

Karim’s latest mission? To launch a family-friendly, spiritually uplifting record label—where artists make music their kids can hear, their elders can celebrate, and the world can grow from.

His sound is clean, his message is clear, and his heart is set on changing the culture—one song, one soul at a time.
