Nigerian Dance Pop Artist Kah-Lo Unveils Her New "Karma" Music Video
/
Grammy-nominated Nigerian dance-pop vocalist Kah-Lo releases the official music video for her latest single ‘Karma’ on Epic Records.
Flaunting her unabashed lyricism and playful bravado in a bold choreographed music video, ‘Karma’ sees Kah-Lo imbued with the dominating spirit she’s carried into her new era. Surrounded by strapping men and draped in red, Kah-Lo is a commanding presence throughout, controlling her various romantic contenders with the flip of her wrist. The visual accompaniment to her introspective single reflecting on her own “toxic feminine energy”, ‘Karma’ embodies Kah-Lo’s charismatic persona and empowering messaging. ‘Karma’ is a captivating follow-up to ‘fund$’, which saw Kah-Lo portray a murderous femme fatale and marks the next chapter in Kah-Lo’s summer of villainy and revenge.
Regarding the music video, Kah-Lo said, “I’ve always been into dance as an interpretive form of art, and I wanted to really channel the lyrics through that and color. Red is associated heavily with heartbreak, so there’s a lot of red tones with ‘Karma’. I hope people enjoy watching it!”
Kah-Lo first emerged on the scene in 2016 appearing on Riton’s ‘Rinse & Repeat’, which earned them a Grammy nomination for ‘Best Dance Recording’. In 2017, Kah-Lo dropped her debut solo single ‘Fasta’, following up with ‘Fake I.D.’ in 2018, which became the lead song for the U.S. arrival of TikTok. Her fierce persona as a solo artist continued to shine through with her debut The Arrival EP, which saw its lead single ‘Commandments’ included on the FIFA 2022 Soundtrack. In 2022, Kah-Lo released her hit single ‘Drag Me Out’, which was featured in Oscar de la Renta’s Spring 2022 campaign and has amassed more than 6 million streams on Spotify alone.
A combination of frisky, party-starting lyricism and refreshing blend of afrobeats, house, and pop music, Kah-Lo’s spirited originals have been placed in shows like ZIWE, Gossip Girl, Harlem, NCIS Los Angeles, Everything’s Trash, and more. Her rhythmic vocals and consistent track record have also earned her features alongside Idris Elba (‘Baille’), Diplo (‘Give Dem’), The Knocks (‘Awa Ni’), and Michaël Brun (‘Melanin’).
Having garnered a reputation as one of dance music’s most accomplished vocalists, ‘Karma’ is the next chapter in Kah-Lo’s new era. Kah-Lo invites fans to indulge in the pain and pleasure that has rocked her career and watch her new ‘Karma’ music video out now.
