Description: ''All These Thoughts'' is the first original mix-tape released in 2019 by the artist ILYAH.

In 2019, ILYAH met his now official producer Nadir Rhazi known as Rhazi On Da Beat through his agent John Kemayi from Kemayi Management. Together they worked on their debut 2020 single ‘HABIBI’. 

HABIBI brings a Moroccan touch to an upbeat pop track that showcases the Moroccan flag and its colors in the heart of Hollywood. The song features a lot of Moroccan talents like the famous Arabic journalist Simo Benbachir, who graces the video with his catch phrase ‘Nayda Nayda’. 

The video also takes place at The Royals Paris in Beverly hills where we see the Moroccan fashion designer Hicham Benslimane picking different clothing items for ILYAH. 

HABIBI could be considered a unique project since no other Moroccan artist has used this kind of sound and visuals before. One could consider this project to be the first of many successful songs that will follow. Stay tuned

''All These Thoughts'' is the first original mix-tape released in 2019 by the artist ILYAH.

Ilyass Hasnaoui, more popularly known as ILYAH, is a Boston-based Moroccan performing artist whose multicultural upbringing permeates his sound with Arabic, Latin and English influences. ILYAH began his career performing covers on YouTube where he garnered a small following. The support of his fans pushed him to break into the music scene.

 

 In 2018, ILYAH was recruited by Jeff Timmons to join, boyband, Overnight. Timmons is famous for founding the multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated, world-renowned group, 98 Degrees.  Timmons deliberated over thousands of internet submissions and auditions to carefully curate Overnight’s band members. Once selected, ILYAH flew to Las Vegas to live together with band members and spend the summer recording and learning choreography. Overnight brought the perfect blend of vocal talent, dancing ability, sex appeal, stage presence, and diversity to create an engaging, high energy, and nostalgic viewing experience.  

In 2019, ILYAH officially began focusing on his solo career after meeting his now official producer Nadir Rhazi aka RhaziOnDaBeat who shares the same cultural background and taste in music.
