(November 7, 2025 – Los Angeles, CA) Today, classically trained multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and vocalist, Faouzia, releases her highly-anticipated debut album, FILM NOIR. Alongside the full-length album comes the official video for “DON’T EVER LEAVE ME”.

Says Faouzia on the release of FILM NOIR, “This is more than an album, it’s my one and only testimony.”
After over seven years of waiting, and finally stepping into independence, Faouzia has poured her heart and soul into FILM NOIR. Each track is its own movie – dark, emotionally rich, and lyrically intentional and profound. With only four collaborators, Faouzia has crafted this album to be one she is irrevocably proud of; whether it’s the first or the only. FILM NOIR is not just a debut, it’s a culmination of every thought she so urgently needed to tell. Every obstacle, every triumph, every defeat, all wrapped in one dark, cinematic, and whimsical world that pulls at your heart strings and speaks to your soul.
With FILM NOIR, Faouzia conjures a visual and cinematic world through her intricate and purposeful lyricism as well as her dramatic and melancholic melodies – with her unmistakable vocals taking center stage. The album features 11 total tracks and includes previously released singles “PEACE & VIOLENCE” and the critically-acclaimed “UNETHICAL,” which landed Faouzia on the cover of Spotify’s Pop All Day playlist, as well as Faouzia’s first independent single, “PORCELAIN.” FILM NOIR has already garnered over 25M streams globally.
Faouzia first let fans in on the news of FILM NOIR back in September during her sold-out event at Paris’ iconic Théâtre Les Étoiles. The intimate evening found Faouzia performing fan-favorites as well as FILM NOIR standouts. Faouzia held another sold-out event at Brooklyn, NY’s Sultan Room earlier this week which saw her perform the entirety of FILM NOIR stripped down. Faouzia then took the stage with John Legend at his Barclays Center show to perform their hit collaboration, “Minefields” - watch here.
