Nairobi-based singer-songwriter Karun weaves soulful R&B vocals and pop songwriting over eclectic soundbeds, and her Soul September playlist reflects her blend of influences—featuring tracks from Erykah Badu, STACY KAMATU, Bien and Aaron Rimbui, Donell Jones, AYLØ, Rowlene, Nikita Kering and more.“R&B is so diverse,” she tells Apple Music. “Some of these songs made my childhood, and some of these songs I recently came across and am obsessed with. I’m excited to put people onto some lesser-known R&B artists from Kenya and East Africa, as there are so many of us. This list definitely isn’t exhaustive, but it’s a start and I hope it piques someone’s interest to dive deeper.”
