Practicing on this guitar was how Mishaal regained control of his arm, hands and fingers.

In 2017 music was fully legalized in KSA and Mishaal created an Instagram account posting his first clip “Can’t Love Myself”. It found success in the lofi world as producers and rappers sampled the clip as well as other clips posted during this time.
