Ett röstfenomen som berör på djupet, ett framtidshopp som redan är här. Mona Masrour har tidigare gästat låtar av Yasin, Jelassi och AMR men det var först 2019 som debutsingeln ”Med tiden” släpptes. Debuten och efterföljande ”Påminner mig/Får aldrig nog”, sedan ”EASY” och ”EXCLUSIVE” visade att vi har en ny, klart lysande stjärna på den svenska musikscenen.

Nu är Mona Masrour mer aktuell än någonsin. Debutalbumet ”Scener”, producerat av Nisj och med inhopp av 1.Cuz, Guleed, L1NA och Mazzo, höjdes till skyarna av kritiker. Hon har utnämnts av DN till ett stjärnskott att hålla koll på 2021 och TT förutspådde att Mona går en ljus framtid till mötes. Och hon är redan på god väg. Under 2021 års Grammisgala var hon flerfaldigt nominerad och prisades som Årets Nykomling.
