Two-time Israeli Oscar nominee and Weeds star Meital has officially launched her music career with the release of her vivacious breakout debut single “Yummy Boyz” off her upcoming album “I’m in Hate With Love.” On the new album, Meital teams up with producer Che Pope who’s best known for his work with Dr. Dre, Eminem, and Lauryn Hill. Her music and lyrics are catchy, exuberant and channel the same sexiness and playfulness as this actress turned singer does. Her first single “Yummy Boyz” is currently available on iTunes and is a great introduction to Meital’s pop, dance sound. After the successful summer release of Meital’s debut single “Yummy Boyz,” which includes spins on radio stations nationwide including WCPQ/WCPT in Chicago and KIIS FM in Los Angeles she is now turning up the volume on her music career with the release of seven “Yummy Boyz” remixes from some of the hottest mixers including Chew Fu, Danny Verde, Dark Intensity and Electrolightz. “Yummy Boyz” and the seven remixes are now available on iTunes and all other online music stores. The original “Yummy Boyz” track has that sexy, sassy summer electro-pop sound and her playful music video for the track has garnered over ONE MILLION views on YouTube to date. The official “Yummy Boyz” music video can be seen on Meital’s official YouTube Channel and it’s just as colorful and creative as the track itself, with great production and even features an appearance by the Obama look-alike, Reggie Brown.
“I’ve always been very passionate about music, but spent the majority of my career focusing on acting,” says Meital Dohan. “But, when I met Che Pope, I took it as a sign that it was time to start recording my first album.”
