by time news

After the successful singles “Primitive” and “Black Butterflies”, Inbal Bibi Back with a new song she wrote and composed herself, “Eye in Eye”. The song presents another perspective on a relationship – when Inbal feels that she is not satisfied in a relationship, she realizes her value and decides to move on. in conversation with Iris Cole On 103FM, the singer told about the new song.

“An eye for an eye” is also characterized by the three elements in Inbal’s line: a tight and challenging pop production, vocals dripping with character and a text that only Inbal Bibi can write – sharp, sexual, exposed, unashamed and unapologetic. These days she is working on a debut album that will be released this summer, along with a busy schedule that was recently filled with hosting a concert at Ran Dankera performance at a huge gay party at Uman 17, a campaign for h&m and of course the musical “The Band” which continues to run throughout the country.

The clip which was filmed in Tbilisi (Georgia) and directed by Itamar Shiri-Leader (“Go to sleep”, “Sunday in the morning”) shows Inbal as she runs away from a man who is chasing her. When he catches her, Inbal confronts him and then the tables are turned – Inbal chases him while he runs away.

What about you?
“I’ve been working on an album lately, which basically means that I make music with a different music producer almost every day. It’s my life’s dream. If there’s a message I want to convey from being me, it’s that the most similar thing to each other, the most uniform collection of songs is the simple truth of The person. I’m not interested in creating an idea behind the person I am, I’m interested in being the person I am.”

The text does not apologize, sometimes you write a text that is very open and the pulse rises from the excitement
“If you don’t have that feeling, then the song is ineffective for me, at least that’s how I feel.”

Feel a bit like taking a risk?
“No, I don’t feel like I’m taking a risk. There are much more deviant songs that have existed in the past. So many songs that talked about much more extreme things than what I’m talking about, so I don’t see it as a risk.”

But was there excitement?
“Yes, when you write a song and bring a child into the world, it’s excitement.”

How was it at Ran Danker’s?
“There is nothing about Ran, there is simply nothing about him. What fun we had. I feel that me and Ran follow the same principle of freedom of expression, to allow people to be who they are without creating a concept. The fact that we follow the same wave in this respect, we fly together on stage” .

About the performance at Uman 17 – what did you wear?
“I wore a leotard with holes, which accentuates all kinds of shapes on a woman’s body but still looks relatively modest. It was really relatively modest for what I like. Tights and on top of a very high heel shoe.”

Campaign for H&M
“Right”.

“I think there were periods when I wasn’t in my career, that I gave up on my career. This is what is called darkness in a career,” Bibi added.

And what returns? How do you climb up?
“I think that many times we try to look for some inspiration to get out of deep pits in life, and we don’t look in the right place. Many times we will look in friends, parties, drugs or whatever, when the answer is really really inside us, what makes us fun, what Flowing, what makes us feel like ‘come on’. This thing that makes us feel these feelings of inspiration, drive, happiness, these are the things we are supposed to focus on everyday. I remember myself in dark times running away from being a musician. People would recognize me on the street and I would tell them, ‘It’s not me.’ At some point I realized that I was running away from my vocation, from my self-fulfillment, out of fear that I might fail if I tried.”

You’re back in full force, and you’re finding that people want to hear you
“Yes, it’s surprising. It caught me, I didn’t know what to expect when I went in. When I did it I just kind of jumped into the deep water and closed my eyes and said ‘about life and death.’ With all the fear and difficulty it was really healing, transformative, strengthening for me. I learned a lot about myself from this experience of realizing that even if you give up then it’s really temporary. I have a tattoo of a tree on my arm which is one of its symbols, there is a wind, there are insects that eat you the roots, but you have to constantly water yourself to grow.”
