Abdul Jabbar. He was a big thing during the Bangladeshi revolution. Here is a link to his Wikipedia page:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdul_Jabbar_(singer)

His songs inspired the locals to kick Pakistani butt and establish Bangladesh as an independent entity.

I don't think that Kareem (a.k.a. Ferdinand Alcindor) has any particular connection to the singer though.

I didn't know who the guy from Bangladesh was.
