Three years after the release of our debut EP, I am thrilled to share with you my latest body of work with fajjr+ali, Insecurities. After recalibrating over the pandemic, we went into the studio in the summer of 2021 to record 4 new songs all revolving around the theme of insecurities. The alt-pop sound draws inspiration from Billie Eilish, Ariana Grande and Raleigh Ritchie and covers the perils of social media, social anxiety, mental health and toxic relationships. Find your streaming service here, or see more on the music section of my website. fajjr+ali joined Palestine in America on their podcast recently to discuss our beginnings, our journey and our upcoming EP Insecurities.

We chatted with hosts Sofia and Sikandar about our backgrounds in theatre, the challenges that come with being Muslims making pop music, and people assuming we're married.

I'm excited to announce the newest single from fajjr+ali - "I'm Fine". We wrote the song to talk about the dark side of social media. We all fall into the trap of feeling like we need to post and show off our best lives on social media but in reality, the constant need can negatively affect our mental health. The song starts off upbeat but slowly gets darker and darker and enters a dark pop realm. Take a listen to this song and the rest of our music here. |
