Eden Ben Zaken Releases Raw, Personal Album About Heartbreak

Israeli pop star Eden Ben Zaken has released her much-anticipated new album, “Again Stella, Again Depression,” featuring eight deeply personal tracks that strip away the filters and showcase her raw, unpolished side.

The project brings together some of Israel’s leading songwriters and producers, including Tamar Yahalomi & Yoni Kalimi, Eliran Eliyahu, Omri Dahan, Tal Kastiel, Ron Biton, and Dolev Ram. The result is a mix of musical styles wrapped in dramatic, emotional lyrics that dive into turbulent relationships, heartbreak, nightlife, and escapism.

“This album is about embracing the pain and vulnerability without hiding behind glitter,” said a source close to the singer. “It’s one of the boldest and most authentic works of her career.”

Ben Zaken, often dubbed the “undisputed queen of Mediterranean pop,” first rose to fame in 2014 on the debut season of X Factor Israel. Since then, she has become one of the country’s most successful artists, with hits like “Queen of Roses,” “Tel Aviv at Night,” “Everyone in Eilat,” and “Moabet.” Her songs have amassed tens of millions of YouTube views, millions of Spotify streams, and numerous awards, including Singer of the Year.

Her star power remains undeniable: just weeks ago, she announced two massive shows at Tel Aviv’s Menora Arena, selling over 20,000 tickets within hours. With her latest release, Ben Zaken once again proves why she holds a unique place in Israeli pop.
