Karun is a Nairobi Based R&B/Soul singer, songwriter and music producer that has left a lasting impression on the Nairobi music scene through her decade long musical career.
“Karun’s current sound can be described as borderless pop music as she weaves soulful R&B vocals and Pop songwriting over eclectic production choices.” - Native Magazine
Karun is a tour de force. She has made notable career strides such as being featured on Forbes Top 30 Under 30 Africa list (2019), won awards and nominations namely "R&B artist of the year" (Cafe Ngoma Awards) and Afrima (nomination) 2021, had her song Interlude (Sun) featured in Fox TV’s “The Resident” (S02E12), and collaborated with multiple Brands.
Her career started serendipitously with the BET nominated hip-hop group Camp Mulla in her early teens, but she has been on a her own steady trajectory since the group disbanded, crafting her sound and creating her own path.
Karun’s solo catalogue consists of notable R&B singles such as Only You - A COLORS SHOW ,
Here With Me , an Afro-pop inspired love song off her sophomore EP “Catch A Vibe”, and Glow Up a body positive anthem Karun is well known for which was premiered on Mr Eazi’s Empawa Africa program.
Karun’s music is raw, honest, and meditative as she aims to inspire listeners to walk their own path. This can be felt in lesser known interludes and lullabies such as Dream Lullaby (Wakarirü), Intro (Indigo EP), and Let Me Know (Intro).
