Sleek, neon-lit R&B that moves like liquid. Polished electronic production meets breathy vocals for late-night drives and hazy, romantic moods.

Imad Royal (Imad-Roy El-Amine) is a Lebanese-Canadian artist who has become a pivotal figure in the 'producer-as-artist' movement of the mid-2010s. Based in the US, his sound identity is a sophisticated blend of electronic R&B, electropop, and future bass.
His career arc is notable for its dual success: while maintaining a solo career characterized by moody, atmospheric EPs like 'Cycles' and 'Bad 4 U', he has simultaneously become a high-demand collaborator and producer for major pop acts. His fingerprints are on works by The Chainsmokers, Panic! At The Disco, and Doja Cat, reflecting a versatile skill set that bridges indie-electronic sensibilities with mainstream chart appeal. Critically, he is respected for his clean, high-fidelity production and his ability to integrate Middle Eastern melodic nuances subtly into Western pop structures. His cultural position is that of a behind-the-scenes powerhouse who defines the current 'clean-yet-moody' aesthetic of modern streaming pop.
