Known for their mesmerizing tapestry of experimental sonics, genre-bending compositions, and soulful fusions, Kaien’s long-awaited LP possesses the ability to transcend listeners into another dimension. Featuring production from the likes of Dan Farber (Lizzo, Tkay Maidza, Dragonette), Os Young (Xenia Manasseh, Ray Vaughn), and Sonic Major (Chxrry22, Dreamville, Don Toliver), Kaien’s signature songwriting shines through on each of the record’s 12 tracks, intertwined with their ethereal and entrancing vocals as heard on new focus single “Tell No One” as well as previous releases “Black Ice” and “I Lay.” The latter of which received an invigorating remix featuring Xenia Manasseh landing Cruz on flagship Spotify R&B playlists including R&B Weekly, Fresh Finds, Tantalizers, and more.
Speaking on the inspiration behind their full-length debut album, Kaien Cruz shares, “KAIEN is a culmination of the diverse range of ebbs and flows I’ve experienced throughout my life thus far – love, heartbreak, bliss, misery, and everything that lies in the space between. I’ve been composing this body of work for years now, and it feels so surreal that I finally get to share it with the world. Genre-bending, smooth vocals, and honest lyrics are my way of creating something for everyone to connect to.”
