Internationally renowned vocalist, songwriter, and classically trained multi-instrumentalist, Faouzia, is one of pop’s most compelling global forces. Recognized for her evocative storytelling and soaring vocal range, she blends her multilingual roots with a boundary-shattering vision to carve her own path within a cinematic sonic universe of her own design. Faouzia has been spotlighted by Variety and Entertainment Weekly as an ‘Artist to Watch,’ with Variety further declaring her “an international artist in the truest sense.” In 2024, Faouzia captivated millions on China’s hit competition series, Singer, ultimately being one of the finalists, and is now the second most streamed international artist in China behind Taylor Swift.
After introducing herself in 2019 with “Tears of Gold,” Faouzia has captivated audiences with breakout singles like “RIP, Love” — surpassing 150 million global streams and video plays combined — along with fan favorites “Don’t Call Me” and “Plastic Therapy.” Her genre-defying collaborations span from John Legend (“Minefields”) and Kelly Clarkson (“I Dare You”) to David Guetta (“Battle”), Galantis (“I Fly”), Alan Walker (“Last Song”), and most recently Illenium & G.E.M. on “Still Breathing,” further cementing her status as a true crossover artist.
Now fully independent with her debut album FILM NOIR out now, Faouzia conjures a visual and cinematic world through her intricate and purposeful lyricism as well as her dramatic and melancholic melodies – with her unmistakable vocals taking center stage. The album spans 11 ethereal tracks and includes Faouzia’s first independent single “PORCELAIN,” as well as “PEACE & VIOLENCE” and viral breakout hit “UNETHICAL,” which landed Faouzia on the cover of Spotify’s Pop All Day playlist as well on Pop Rising. FILM NOIR has already garnered over 113M worldwide streams and recently charted on Apple Music’s Top Pop Albums chart.
