‘LOOKS CAN GUARANTEE ATTENTION ONLY FOR A SHORT PERIOD’

Lebanese pop singer Ryan tells City Times that more than the money and the fame, he has chosen singing as a career because his love for music is more important than anything else.

Tell us about yourself.

I am a student in the Faculty of Rights (Lawyer's college). I love singing and have been doing that since childhood. I used to sing during school parties. Two years ago, the musician Go Bardogyan was impressed with my voice and that is how I got my first break. I am also happy with my association with the music company Rotana. And I believe, this association is my ticket to success.

What has led to all this rumours floating around after the release of your first video?

Since there are so many wannabe stars in this field, people are afraid of competition. Established stars especially fell insecure whenever an upcoming singer joins the field.

Why did you choose singing as your career?

Simply because that is what I love doing.

What is it that you like more, the fame or the money?

Money is definitely very important. But my love for music is more important than anything else.

Do you think that your look has played a major role in helping you sing foreign harmonies?

I love singing foreign harmonies. But I also like a fusion of the foreign and oriental. I think Greek and Turkish tunes are closer to the character of my singing.

Has your image helped you in your career?

I think the outer look can guarantee only a short attention period. But then it is what the artist is from the inside that is more important than anything else.

Do you plan to continue singing songs for the youth?
