Yuna began writing songs when she was 14, eventually establishing herself as a Myspace artist. It was only after obtaining her law degree that she decided to pursue a career in music. She has since released multiple albums and has collaborated with top music producers including David Foster and Pharrell Williams.

Yuna released her most recent album, "Nocturnal", in October.  She says it's a mix of R&B and electro music with a "bit of Malaysia traditional-sounding instruments in there".

Favorite album lately: "Nocturnal" by Yuna. Bouncy Muslim Malaysian-born Sade-esque genre-busting gem. My daughters can't stop singing it.John Gorman

Omg when i heard Yuna's full album..Its so peaceful and the nocturnal type sounds..Awesome..#Cthulhu

Many young Muslim women around the world are inspired by Yuna's commitment to her faith.  She wears the hijab in all her performances and has also created her own line of clothing called, 14NOV, which allows her to design clothing consistent with her religion and culture.
