Zarooniโs โWTF!โ is a raw, electrifying outcry wrapped in a hazy, alt-rock dreamscape. The Emirati-British singer-songwriter lays it all out, balancing nostalgia, frustration, and deep yearning with an effortless cool. From the very first pulse of those hard-hitting beats, the track pulls you in, drenched in foggy, reverb-soaked guitars that swirl like a storm. Then comes Zarooniโs voiceโyouthful, charismatic, and utterly transparent. He pours out his soul, every note dripping with vulnerability.
The rhythm hooks you, the guitars push you forward, and suddenly, youโre lost in the songโs immersive world. Then, just when you think youโve settled in, the synth solo in the bridge catapults you into a retro dance night, shimmering with neon-lit nostalgia. And as the song nears its end, a churning electric guitar outro crashes in, leaving you buzzing in the aftermath.
Lyrically, โWTF!โ is an anthem of disillusionment. Zarooni paints a stark picture of the world he once knew, now unrecognizable. Lines like โI see the streets we grew up on, what the f*ck have they becomeโ cut deep, blending personal loss with a broader sense of societal decay. The repeated phrase โThe writings on the wallโ lingers like an echo of inevitability, a warning and a lament rolled into one. Itโs the kind of song that hits different depending on where you are in lifeโwhether youโre reminiscing about a past thatโs long gone or watching your world change before your eyes.
Zarooniโs musical roots run deep, shaped by traditional Emirati melodies and Western rock influences, and it shows in the way he crafts a sound that feels both familiar and refreshingly unique. Stay tuned with the blossoming artist for more such incoming hits.
