Kamilah's roots give light to a well-rounded and cultured life growing up in The Bahamas. Her childhood was full of memories listening to some of the greatest musicians of our time with her mother and learning the jazz ropes with her father. Music was the constant that kept her grounded and helped to teach her about life, and that truth is at the core of why she wants to continue to create it, both for herself and others. Admits Kamilah, “Music is very cathartic and is so tied to memory. It can get you through some of the most elevating and traumatizing times. I try to make music that helps people find their way through their experiences and grow from them- It helps me in that way and I want to share that with people.” Her upcoming debut EP Learning Curve is a true blend of genres, offering up jazzy lines (“The Love You Need”, “HeartFeels”, “Dark Skin | Coconut Oil”) amidst tunes with obvious R&B roots (“Careless Thieves”, “Losing My Pride”, and soulful pop (“Letters”, “Dangerous”). But what is perhaps the most beautiful aspect of her new release is that the Learning Curve she refers to is one she has experienced in many aspects of her life. Through her growth over the years, she has written and produced songs that illuminate struggles with existentialism, racism, sexism, culture, love and other hard topics. Rather than bury those difficult lessons, she has brought them to light in a way that we can relate to, internalize and grow from.
