Sajjad Ali is a Pakistani semi-classical, pop singer. He was one of the pioneers of pop music and emerged to fame in the early 1980's. However, he was already known to some people as a semi-classical singer due to his work in the classicial industry and his family popularity. He is one of very few Pakistani pop singers with full training in classical singing.

A.R. Rahman sings his praises and that is no mean feat. He says Sajjad is the original crossover. From the realm of the classical, he metamorphosed into one of the brightest lights of Pakistani pop. Always striking the right note, and never missing a beat, even the most hardened purist has to give Sajjad his due. This man can breathe life in a ghazal even as he puts the V back into verve. He is one of the very few singers in Pakistan who seems a complete singer.

Sajjad released his first classical hit album “Master Sajjad sings Memorable Classics in 1979 the musicians were Great Bade Ghulam Ali Khan Sab, Mehdi Hassan Khan Sahab and Ghulam Ali and Amanat Ali Khan Sab, most of the songs were written by Hasrat Mohani, Momin and many more.
