Iman became famous among his peers for singing. One day he sang at the wedding of one of his friends where an agent was present. The agent subsequently hired him as an engineer in his company, where Sayyed worked for six months. Thereafter the agent presented him to his brother, producer Atef Montasser who produced his first tape which was a sort of revival of his grandfather’s legacy and was titled “al Waritheen” (The Inheritors).
