Besides his career in music, Ibrahim has also showed interest in contributing to various charities. In 2016, he decided to cover study related costs of a special needs child for 1 year.

In 2015, Ibrahim participated in the Boduberu Challenge, where he was the lead singer of the boduberu group Dhammaanu. At the end of the show, he was awarded as the best singer of the season. The same year, he auditioned for the first season of Maldivian Idol and was chosen as the first runner-up of the show. A while after the results were declared, Shalabee’s manager Ali Amir refused to accept the results of the show and demanded to publicize the results of votes. However, a day later the team decided to move forward with the agreement that was made along with Public Service Media, which involves talent managing programs for a span of two years.
