London-based Kurdish viral star BANA continues to take over the world with her newest single, ‘Ripple Effect’. If there’s one song that’s likely to push this artist into the UK mainstream, then this is it.
The track infuses nostalgia-inspired dark pop (the kind mastered by producers like Max Martin in the 00s) with underground beats, giving listeners an edgy but familiar sound. It’s pop at its best and showcases BANA’s vocals beautifully.
BANA is already a huge name for Kurdish music fans. Her single ‘Birwa Nakem‘ has received 132m views on TikTok alone and almost 10m views on YouTube. Her work has also been featured by the likes of Wonderland Magazine and Ones to Watch.
The artist is currently working alongside industry legends like Mojam (Sam Smith, Jessie Ware) as well as Starsmith (Zedd, Lady Gaga) and Frances (Dua Lipa, SG Lewis).
