Ahmed Nabeel Mohamed was born on 10 May 1992. [1] His mother, Fathimath Zoona, is a well-known Maldivian singer and is regarded as one of the country's most successful female vocalists.

After a nine-year gap, Nabeel returned with a duet performance alongside Rafiyath Rameeza in Ehan'dhaanugai Duet (2009) performing a remake of the classic "Naanaavee Seedhaa Loabi", originally sung by Naifaru Dhohokko and Jeymu Dhonkamana.

[7] He re-auditioned the following year, advancing to the "Top 6" before being eliminated.
