New York Arab Festival Presents Nadine El Roubi featuring Dania

Nadine El Roubi made her mark on the music scene in 2020 with her explosive freestyle “#FEMALE”, a bold and provocative statement that showcased her prowess as an MC. Though she had introduced herself with the introspective singer-songwriter anthem "Throne" two years earlier, #FEMALE cemented her ability to command attention with sharp lyricism and fearless storytelling.
Over the past four years, her steadily growing body of work has amassed millions of streams, drawing listeners into her unique blend of neo-soul and hip-hop.

Her breakout single "Honey Butter", the lead track from her 2022 EP Triplicity, captivated audiences with its smooth, sultry sound, while "CALM DOWN", the lead single from her 2024 mixtape Freestyles, Pt. 2: A Mixtape!, further demonstrated her versatility as both a rapper and vocalist. Both tracks have gained immense popularity on streaming platforms and social media, reinforcing her reputation as an artist capable of delivering both intricate bars and soulful melodies.

With co-signs from industry heavyweights like SZA, A Tribe Called Quest’s Jarobi White, and recognition from Rolling Stone, Nadine El Roubi is rapidly emerging as a breakthrough artist—one poised to leave a lasting impact on both the SWANA region and the global music scene.
