Determined to make her mark, she unfurled successful singles like “Playing with Fire” and “Disposition,” finding her place in the iTunes charts and carving her niche in the musical landscape. Her recent endeavor, “Nonstop,” unveils a unique fusion of her Palestinian roots with her pop culture aspiration, giving fans a tantalizing glimpse into her world.
Influences from icons like Nancy Ajram, deemed the “Arabic Beyoncé,” and Western legends like Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Britney Spears, Madonna, Cher, and Kanye West, shaped her style. She defines her music goals by vowing to emulate strong women who unquestionably own their positions and to evolve into the “Arab Aaliyah” with a riveting R&B backdrop.
Inas X, with her indomitable spirit, crashed through barriers, emerging as a Palestinian woman who dared to dream in beats. Sharing her excitement and gratitude, she affirmed, “Owning that and being that is so powerful.” She has already shared the stage with renowned personas like Post Malone, Fetty Wap, and Tokyo Jets, and has graced concerts and festivals across Los Angeles, including Rolling Loud.
