Music show: Okay Kaya and Ziyad Al-Samman bring their musical universes to France • FRANCE 24 [Video]

On today’s music show on arts24, Jennifer Ben Brahim is joined on set by Norwegian-American singer Okay Kaya and Syrian-British musician Ziyad Al-Samman. Okay Kaya is known for juxtaposing her sweet vocal melodies with her unfiltered take on the human experience. She’s just dropped her fourth album called “Oh My God – That’s So Me”, a reflection on social media and “meme culture”. The album also discusses isolation and storytelling. Okay Kaya is playing this week at Paris’ Pitchfork music festival. Ziyad Al-Samman is on track to becoming everyone’s favourite habibi music maker: His childhood in Jordan helped inform his musical style, which is also influenced by Prince and David Bowie. He’s set to drop his debut EP “Pleasure Complex” and is performing next month at Trans Musicales festival in Rennes, France.
