Life and career Adib began singing at the age of six in the choir of the Syriac Catholic Cathedral of Saint Paul in Damascus. There, she learned to know the tradition of Christian Byzantine music as well as choral practices associated with Muslim musical traditions. Between the ages of ten and twelve, she lived with her parents in Calgary, Canada, before returning to Syria with her mother. She attended a French-language school and later studied at the Higher Institute of Music in Damascus. At home, she was exposed to both Arabic and Western classical music.

On Ma Li Beit, an album produced in collaboration with the Lebanese musician Zeid Hamdan as the duo Bedouin Burger, Adib performs in a variety of vocal styles, ranging from muwashshah to Bedouin ballads and lullabies, and sings in several Arabic dialects, including the Damascene Arabic of her native city. In 2021, they were featured at a Tiny Desk concert. The project's musical style has been described as "electro-tarab", a fusion of the Arabic maqam modes, Middle Eastern rhythms, electronic soundscapes, Arabic poetry, and synthesizer-driven beats.
