Kenya - My Own Skin (2015)

Her first single released, Be Here featuring the soulful duo Kloud 9, peaked at #28 on the USA R&B Billboards and #2 on the UK Soul Chart. Her second release, Wednesday Girl is receiving riveting reviews for its clever lyrics about limited love while provided a stirring groove with moments of jazz and soul intertwined. It too peaked at #2 on the UK Soul Chart. Kenya even takes on legendary Michael Jacksons single I Can't Help It produced by Othello Glen and David Stoller, a.k.a SugaBoom adding a contemporary and favourable spin on a classic. Other noteworthy singles on the album include the title track My Own Skin which is a testimony to Kenyas personal journey and Brown Soul which takes a deeper and more spiritual look into the plight and tragedy of violence amongst African American males. Top notch producers Kendall Duffie (Kloud 9), Khari Cabral Simmons (Jiva), Darren Daz I Kue Benjamin (Bugz in the Attic), Mark de-Clive Lowe, and Grammy award winner Maurice Joshua further punctuate this remarkable debut LP. Kenya is the executive producer and the primary songwriter on the album. If youre looking for new soul music that will take your heart, mind and spirit on a melodic journey, My Own Skin will suit you perfectly.
