A FAFA Photo
FAFA, I’m half Emirati and half Honduran.
I write music on my experience with mental health and my journey to becoming my best self.
Free, confident, comfortable.
I think the best gig I’ve ever been to was The Killers back in 2009, they started playing and I just went wild.
I’d say Social House and Miley Cyrus.
I think the hippie subculture has influenced me in the sense of wanting to just be who I want to be, accept others for who they are and wanting freedom for all.
I’d love to spend an hour with Cleopatra and just let her tell me the story through her words.
My first ever show in Dubai at the Fridge is by far my favourite independent venue to date. The show was called The Beat DXB and I remember being so excited to get up on stage and give my all and I did. I walked in with no one knowing my name, but I walked out with people asking where I’d been all that time.
Tac is one of the greatest artists I have met in Dubai, from his writing to his producing skills it’s just incredible what he’s doing and how much he’s hustled. I truly respect him has a friend and as an artist.
The entire Cheetah Girls soundtrack (first movie) it was a bop.
'Reflection' by Christina Aguilera.
'I’d rather go blind' by Etta James.
“A dream is a wish your heart makes”
From 'Cinderella'.
'Killing Me Softly With His Song' by Fugees.
'Money' by Cardi B.
'Never Be Like You' by Flume.
'Crazy In Love' by Beyoncé. It gets me. Every. Single. Time.
'Daylight' by Joji.
I’ve been listening to a lot of music from my hometown from artists like Sachii, Tac, swerte, Jasmine Taylor and Emma Cotter. There’s so many more homegrown talent I’ve been listening to but those have been the most recent in the past few days. I love seeing what comes out of our community.
