Top Dawg Entertainment and Warner Records release Alemeda’s ‘1-800 FK-YOU’, hear it now, watch the visualizer, tour dates ahead.

The next chapter in Alemeda’s ascent begins with ‘1-800 FK-YOU’, out now on Top Dawg Entertainment, Warner Records. The single answers group chat chatter with a cheeky, no filter reply, driven by razor sharp delivery and a stance that shows zero tolerance for fakes. By flipping the script on drama, Alemeda moves side eyes into the center of attention, shaping an equal parts petty and powerful moment of hot girl confidence.

Alemeda’s craft sits at the center of ‘1-800 FK-YOU’, a single released via Top Dawg Entertainment and Warner Records. It is pitched as a cheeky, no filter anthem for anyone who has served as the main character in someone else’s group chat. With razor sharp delivery and zero tolerance for fakes, Alemeda flips the script on drama so that side eyes become a spotlight. The release is equal parts petty and powerful, a playful clapback wrapped in hot girl confidence.

Her perspective on the record is clear: ““1-800-F**K-YOU” is really just about how I couldn’t care less what people think because I truly believe your haters are always your biggest fans. It’s cocky, and it’s a little petty in the cutest way.”

Alemeda calls on pop, rock, and indie sensibilities as tools for self expression and empowerment. The Ethiopian Sudanese singer songwriter and producer first gained attention with the 2021 UK garage track ‘Gonna Bleach My Eyebrows’, which now sits above 14 million streams. She has since leaned into an alt pop rock muse that showcases creative production and genre fluidity. That approach is evident on the 2024 debut EP ‘FK IT’, where unfiltered emotion and compelling storytelling help define a bold, magnetic artist to watch. The project’s success and critical acclaim earned opening slots on tours for Rachel Chinouriri and Halsey recently.

The stage plan is active. Alemeda is currently on a full festival run across North America and Europe, with named stops including Lollapalooza and Osheaga.
