NEW ALBUM DROP!

Comedy Records is proud to announce the release of Atheer Yacoub’s debut album, Denied Entry, available globally on streaming platforms.

On her debut LP, Atheer riffs on the differences between what it means to "get stoned" in the US vs the Middle East, owning a gun in a Muslim family living in the deep south, and why you always need an anchor white woman to travel with.

Yacoub explores themes of immigration, gender roles, and growing up in a Palestinian Muslim family in the heart of Alabama. The album features material written and honed by the New York comedian over 10 years while frequently headlining sold-out shows all over North America.
