Obaid had his first breakthrough to radio and TV whilst he was a law student at Kabul university and the first song titled “sadai qalbam” he recorded for radio and TV became a hit and he managed to record few more tracks but due to the sudden change of situation in Afghanistan they never got broadcasted.

In 1992 Obaid was forced out of Afghanistan by the war in the country and made his way to Kiev the capital of Ukraine where he carried on with his education.

In 1994 Obaid went to England where he was afforded further opportunity to explore his ability and talent in the field of music, and decided to establish a firm basis for his only ambition, music. Subsequently he met his ustad, one of the greatest names in music, Mr. Ghulam Ali and became his student.
