Fame is not as rare to acquire anymore with more and more social media apps letting anyone have their shot to shine. The rare part is finding someone who knows how to handle it. Our stranger this week, IMRANYE, is a TikTok star especially popular amongst the Muslim community for his hilarious videos as a “relatable imam.” He talks to us about navigating the foreign territory of internet fame while facing the pressure of an entire community. We also address his Twitter beef with Faras, talk about his side hustles, mental health and faith, and a whole lot more!
The Strange Squad also talks about the humanitarian crisis in Yemen, why we never learned about Juneteenth, and social influencers in the wild.
This is the 116th episode of Strange Flavors, brought to you by Alif Theory.
