Atlanta-born, Los Angeles-based songwriter and vocalist Kareen Lomax releases her deeply personal debut studio album NAJI today through Music Is Fun. Produced entirely by Daoud, the album stands as an extraordinary artistic achievement.
Musically, NAJI effortlessly drifts between atmospheric ambient soul, left-field alternative R&B, and hypnotic electronic textures. Lyrically, Lomax confronts complex personal histories—navigating grief, family losses, adoption, and her cross-country relocation from Georgia to Southern California with unflinching vulnerability.
With its lush sound design and deeply moving vocal performances, NAJI establishes Lomax at the vanguard of modern alternative R&B and electronic indie soul.
