Muslim Celebrity News: New tracks from Medina

Monday, May 10th, 2010

New Music has been released from Medina a group consisting of Five Eighty and HAZaliĀ  and we have some exclusive tracks right here just for Hijabtrendz readers!

If you haven’t heard of them, Medina is a group that is trying to create music that speaks to the minds and hearts of today’s “uber eccentric generation”. Medina says they are bringing change to an industry that is made up of materialism and misogyny with positive messages through their music.

Here is one of the songs called “Muslim Girl”:

Our personal fave is this one called “Strong” (note: some explicit lyrics).
Strong

What do you think? Are you liking the messages?
