“TDE placed trust and time in me to find my sound and develop as an artist at my own pace. I think to be signed to them means to be more than just an artist but to be a pivotal part of Black art and culture,” Alemeda said in a statement.
“I’m honored to be the third woman ever signed to this historic roster of talented culture pavers. Warner also has a great understanding of who I am as an artist, and their historic success in the rock and pop genres makes me confident in our future together. I feel they were the right team to support my growth as an artist and I am excited for what is to come working with them alongside TDE.”
She also just dropped her 8-track debut EP, “FK IT”
Alemeda, the emerging Ethiopian-Sudanese artist makes Alternative Rock/Pop music as a form of self-expression and empowerment. The Singer/Songwriter/Producer made a name for herself with her viral 2021 debut single, “Gonna Bleach My Eyebrows,” which has earned close to 34 million streams to date. Telling tales of leveling up, and leaving regrettable exes in the past, she weaves between pop, rock, and alternative stylings while using soft melodies to capture her unbothered attitude. Alemeda’s introduction to music was fairly unconventional. She grew up between Ethiopia and Arizona in a stern household with strict religious rules and customs where she was alienated from music up until the age of 10. Criticism and familial disapproval of her musical aspirations only made her more determined to push the envelope. After graduating high school, she left for Los Angeles to pursue her passion. Since then, she’s written songs that bared her soul. As she gears up for the release of her long-awaited & highly anticipated debut EP, she’s determined for her music to be a light in the darkness for others, just as she needed to be for herself. Her recently released singles, “Don’t Call Me” and “I hate your face,” offer a glimpse into a new chapter of Alemeda’s career, moving on from the turbulent emotions of adolescence to showcasing her growth and confidence.
