Welcome // OSHUN

The upbeat intro track on bittersweet vol. 1 welcomes you to the Afrofuturist world of OSHUN, introducing themes of space and spirituality with a sci-fi twist.

Me // OSHUN

This track is a true self-love anthem, emphasizing self-care (“celebrate the elements that keep my mind right”) and acceptance of yourself, flaws and all. 

My World // OSHUN ft. Jorja Smith

“My World” slows it down with a soft and sweet track featuring Jorja Smith. Dreamy chimes and smooth guitar chords glide in and out of the background, creating the sonic equivalent of an ethereal trip through the stars. 

Float // Jaji Preme

Jaji Preme is a rapper from the East Bay, who highlights authenticity, mysticality, and love in her lyrics.

Jupiter Black // Ascend

Jupiter Black’s current project titled “The Black Diet” emphasizes love, society, and artistry. 

The show is on Friday, May 10th at 6pm in the KCSB Courtyard (under Storke Tower). Be sure to come early- we’ll be running a raffle for a pair of tickets to the SOLD OUT concert with The Marías at SOhO, as well as a pair of tickets to Kali Uchis and Jorja Smith at the Los Angeles Greek Theater!
