In 2023, we witnessed Elyanna’s rise to fame, highlighted by her historic performance at the Coachella Music Festival. With many artists such as Saint Levant, Bayou, Ali Gatie, etc…however, Elyanna has been able to distinguish herself from others by insisting on just performing in Arabic. While other artists blend English and French with their Arabic, she is resolute on keeping it just in Arabic, including at the Coachella. That is not the only thing that sets her apart from others; her extreme vocals, physicality, the edge way she dresses (which is styled by her sister), drums, and the spectacle of her performance also set her apart.

The U.S pressuring Israel to lessen its civilian death toll is contrary to their more recent weapons sale with Israel and has called many to question Biden’s administration even those of his own political party especially with the Palestinian death toll rising above 20,000 and those injured over 50,000. The usage of unguided bombs on a small and dense region has made the global population question Israel’s motivation, which is now seemingly malicious.
