    i think MBD was the one who made that name famous by calling him that on stage.

    These days its hip to be a one name star. It was only a matter of time.

    Its sad that “Avremel” feels the need to be hip. As long as he doesn’t try to hip up his music like some other people in the industry it won’t bother me. His music is Jewish music at its finest.

    I think the real answer is that it is because of some changes in the jewish music scene as a whole. It used to be more “commercial”, everything was more official. You wouldn’t hear him singing a song from a different singer in his league… Now you can find clips of him singing virtually any current hit like Vzakeini (B. Levine), etc.. Everything is more heimish in a way. This is also, in my opinion why he is know now to more people as Avreimel.

    he is known to people with this name because thats the name he got years ago it has nothing to do with how and what he sings……

    Avraham Fried feels the need to have a one name name. Like Lipa, Dedi, Shwekey, etc.

    His name was always Avremel Friedman. He changed it to Avraham Fried as a performer name. The people that really know him call him by his real name which is Avremel.

    his father, a’h, was a tzaddik… one of the sweetest people I ever met, always with a smile, a gentle soul. I used to work with him.

    my family has known him for quite some time as other posters mentioned his family has called him that for years, if anything he feels comfortable using it it is not a reason like needing to shorten his name or feeling hip.
