Biography

Celebrated British-Lebanese rapper and producer Laughta continues her trailblazing journey in the music industry, solidifying her position as one of the UK's brightest talents. Her star power, recognised by the BBC Introducing 'One to Watch' award win at the 2023 AIM Independent Music Awards, is set to shine even brighter with the upcoming release of her EP under a global deal with MDLBEAST Records.

Laughta's unique style, shaped by her multi-cultural background (born in Nigeria and of Lebanese descent), has garnered attention in the UK Grime Scene. The success of her first single, 'Aint the Same,' released in November '23 and produced in collaboration with Grammy-nominated producer GG, was evident with its play on Radio 1 by Jack Saunders and track track of the week on BBC Introducing track with Abbie Mac. This track encapsulates the essence of Laughta's diverse background and sets the stage for her upcoming EP.

Next in line is 'Beleil,' set to drop on February 1st, a collaboration between Laughta and the talented Sudanese artist A.G. Nimeri. The track dives deep into human emotion, capturing the darkness and pain that often accompany the stillness of the night. Laughta's production skills, coupled with A.G. Nimeri's poignant vocals, create an emotionally charged experience, inviting listeners to explore the intricacies of the human experience.

During her tenure as the inaugural 'Artist in Residence' at the Music Hub in Riyadh, Laughta collaborated with regional and international talents, leading to an EP that gracefully blends cultures and genres into a captivating sonic tapestry. This upcoming release will showcase instruments like the Oud, Ney & Darbuka dancing alongside Laughta's beats, with Arabic lyrics flowing through her verses, telling stories of her cultural roots and adventures.

Reflecting on her musical journey, Laughta states, “It's not just about creating cool tunes; it's about strengthening my connection to my origins, my heritage, and embracing who I truly am. It's a celebration of all the beautiful diversity out there.”

Laughta's musical prowess extends to international collaborations, with standout partnerships including Sudanese artist A.G. Nimeri, viral sensation Mo Al Sahli, bilingual artist Poe Leos from Mexico, rising star Kali B, and Riyadh-based rapper Beast. This dynamic female duo recently performed at the Emerge 100 fashion streetwear show during Paris Fashion Week at the iconic Place Vendome.

The EP's production boasts contributions from Laughta, DJ El Fuego, Ramii (renowned for work with Kid Cudi and Machine Gun Kelly), Lebanese producer Sleiman Damien on ‘Layla,’ and Grammy-nominated producer GG.

As "Beleil" prepares to captivate audiences on February 1st, Laughta's journey of cultural celebration and musical innovation is poised to resonate with audiences worldwide.

Following a triumphant UK tour with Marshall Live in 2023, captivating audiences in Glasgow, Manchester, Cardiff, Birmingham, and London, Laughta returns in 2024 with a headline show on Jan 29th at the Engine Rooms, London as part of Independent Venue Week.
