Jamal began making waves in the Sydney comedy scene after winning the Stand Up and Be Counted Comedy Competition in 2017. He then became a RAW Comedy State Finalist in 2018 further legitimising himself as a Sydney comedy mainstay.

Jamal has since gone on to be featured on Tony Hinchcliffe’s Kill Tony Podcast and sell out shows at the Sydney Comedy Festival, Sydney Fringe Festival and Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

Born into an ethnically diverse family to his Italian mother and Arab father Jamal, at three months old was diagnosed with a rare eye condition which is the cause of his blindness. From the very beginning Jamal was an outsider observing the world and the people around him from a perspective not many would share with him. It’s his ‘I’m not weird, your weird’ attitude that makes his stand up comedy performances so unique.
