Zaki Ibrahim's music is captivating and vibrant. It's thick with poetics and steeped in a delicious mixture of earnest emotion and social commentary. Zaki's path continues to progress, layering new experiences on top of each other that uniquely influence her musical ventures, culminating in her most recent project, eclectica (episodes in purple).

Zaki's road has been paved with creative encounters that have propelled her forward – from a childhood steeped in musical influences, to performing at Capetown's historic Armchair Theatre, then touring Canada with South Africa's Tumi and the Volume, the Roots and Bedouin Soundclash, to collaborating with famed DJ/Producer King Britt, to now.

With a full length album in the works, Zaki will continue to break new ground, challenge assumptions and step outside her comfort zone. Her philosophy of making connections based on a mutual admiration for expression, creativity and the power of words, directs Zaki's path. Expect the unexpected as Zaki continues to grow as an artist.
