<\/a><\/p>\nIt might be a drizzly June morning In New York city when we catch up with Fatima, but the summer vibe that is so infectious in her music is clearly part of her character too. Her debut album \u2018Yellow Memories\u2019 was released at the beginning of May and is already garnering global attention. Put together over \u201ctwo years-ish\u201d and recorded in both LA and London it is an album of sun kissed soul. \u201cSo far I\u2019ve had a lot of people hit me up and tell me they like it,\u201d says Fatima. \u201cI\u2019ve received a lot of really good reception; you never know what people are going to feel when they listen to your music.\u201d But despite her growing fame, Fatima is humbled by the reception she has garnered so far. \u201cI feel like I\u2019ve got a lot of love for it, which makes me really happy because that\u2019s all I can ask for\u201d she expalins.<\/p>\n
On first hearing her music we were completely unaware of her Swedish roots and were intrigued about what took her from picturesque Stockholm, to London but she soon explained. \u201cStockholm? It was totally different. I don\u2019t know exactly where to start,\u201d she says. \u201cCompared to London it\u2019s pretty small. It\u2019s a pretty city, surrounded by water and it\u2019s clean, London is really dirty,\u201d she laughs. But despite it being dirty, she appreciates London’s dynamic. \u201cIt\u2019s one of the go to cities of the world,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s got a different tempo, it\u2019s a bit crazier in a way.\u201d<\/p>\n
