Eden Hason

A young Israeli singer-songwriter that is quickly rising to fame is Eden Hason. Hason’s style can be classified as a mix of R&B and Israeli pop. His first single “Shemishehu Yaatzor Oti” was released in 2018, and really kicked off his music career. This song in particular, about young, reckless love, established his teenage fan base. The following year, Hason released his first album also called “Shemishehu Yaatzor Oti.” His most listened-to song on Spotify, “Ad Shetavoyi Ad Alaiy,” was released in 2022. Hason has a unique performance style and stage presence that elevates his music to the next level.

Another important artist in Israeli culture is Noa Kirel, who in recent months has become very prominent as she led Israel to third place in the Eurovision song contest. Kirel is a pop star who represented Israel with her newest hit “Unicorn,” a song about inner strength and learning to persevere through challenges.

Kirel is a singer and actress who won the MTV Europe Award for best Israeli Act in 2022. Her most popular hits include “Lucky” and “Pantara.” Additionally, she collaborated with Israeli actress and comedian Gitit Fisher on “Shloshah Banot,” a song making fun of Israeli grammar through its misgendering of certain words.

Earlier this year at the MTV EMA’s awards, Kirel controversially wore a matching set with Kanye West’s face, covered with gold stars of David chains. Kirel said that her outfit was supposed to send West a message, in response to his antisemitic remarks. She received a lot of support from her Israeli followers and gained more international popularity from this statement.
