Alemeda shares ‘1-800 FK-YOU’ on TDE, Warner Records, quote inside, visualizer live, EP history and festival dates included.
““1-800-F**K-YOU” is really just about how I couldn’t care less what people think because I truly believe your haters are always your biggest fans. It’s cocky, and it’s a little petty in the cutest way.”
Alemeda opens this era by putting her statement first. The single ‘1-800 FK-YOU’ arrives via Top Dawg Entertainment, Warner Records, positioned as a cheeky, no filter anthem for anyone who has ever been the main character in someone else’s group chat. The delivery is razor sharp, the stance shows zero tolerance for fakes, and the narrative flips drama into a spotlight moment. It is equal parts petty and powerful, a playful clapback wrapped in hot girl confidence. Listen to ‘1-800 FK-YOU’ HERE. Watch the visualizer HERE.
Her approach blends pop, rock, and indie sensibilities as a vehicle for self expression and empowerment. The Ethiopian Sudanese singer songwriter and producer first turned heads with the 2021 UK garage single ‘Gonna Bleach My Eyebrows’, now over 14 million streams.
Continuing to lean into an alt pop rock muse, Alemeda has showcased creative production and genre fluidity throughout her music. On the 2024 debut EP ‘FK IT’, unfiltered emotion and compelling storytelling have helped cement her as a bold, magnetic artist to watch. That debut’s success and critical acclaim earned opening slots on tours for both Rachel Chinouriri and Halsey recently.
