Diam's

Diam's (French: [djams]; born Mélanie Georgiades on July 30, 1980) is a French-language rap artist of French and Greek Cypriot origin. Her family moved to Essonne in 1984. She embraced Islam in late 2010 after studying and reading Islam. When asked by her host about her views on Islam and the extreme fringe of fundamentalists she answered: “I think we should differentiate between the ignorant and the knowledgeable, and the ignorant should not speak about what he doesn’t know, Islam does not allow murdering innocent victims the way we see it nowadays. We can't stereotype a whole religion because of actions of a few individuals.” more »
