Josef shines on dynamic debut single ‘BADALNI WA7EED’

Dubai-born singer-songwriter Josef has released his latest single, ‘BADALNI WA7EED’, as he looks to make waves as a dynamic newcomer.

Pioneering a distinctive new sound, the track sets out to blend Western and Arabic flavours, establishing him as a dynamic creative force.

Pushing forward with a boundary-pushing prowess, ‘BADALNI WA7EED’ looks to forge Western pop music with Eastern melodies to create something that feels truly boundary pushing.

The single starts with a soothing vocal, backed by a plucked arpeggio to create a hypnotic atmosphere, before swelling synthesisers take hold to bolster the record as a commanding anthem.

‘BADALNI WA7EED’ strikes a chord that is just as raw as it is intimate, teeing Josef up as a rising star to keep a watchful eye on.

Explaining the creative process, he dives in, “Making this song felt like being a kid again. I was playing Grace by Jeff Buckley on my guitar in my flat and was amazed by the chords that his tuning could make. I kept tweaking and noodling until I found something I liked.”
