Singer Anna Zak has released a new four-track EP titled "Gam VeGam" (Both and Both), featuring songs in diverse musical styles. In a recent interview on Kan News's "BaHatsi Hayom" radio program, Zak discussed the creative process behind the EP, the meanings embedded in the songs, and her future plans. She described the EP's creation as natural, stemming from a period of prolific songwriting where several songs coalesced into a cohesive story, leading to the decision to release an EP rather than a series of singles.
Each of the EP's four songs is accompanied by a music video, all filmed with a unified visual concept. Zak explained that the videos were shot on a continuously moving truck to visually convey the EP's overarching theme. She highlighted the title track, "Barbie Bratz," as particularly close to her heart, reflecting her evolving understanding of herself and her acceptance of multiple facets of her personality. She elaborated on the "Barbie" and "Bratz" imagery, seeing Barbie as classic and politically correct, while Bratz represents a bolder, more characterful side, ultimately symbolizing the ability to embrace both aspects of oneself.
The EP also features a collaboration on the song "London" with Eden Golan and producer Itai Galo. Zak revealed that this song, which she described as uplifting, has been ready for nearly two years and felt like the perfect fit for the EP. Regarding the upcoming elections, Zak emphasized the importance of civic participation, stating that it is crucial for everyone to vote.
Looking ahead, Zak expressed her eagerness to return to performing live, following a previously canceled major concert. While she wants to focus on promoting the new EP first, she affirmed her strong desire and commitment to performing on stage again, stating it "must happen" at the right time.
