Seattle based artist DoNormaal (aka Christianne Karefa-Johnson) is a skilled exponent of a highly evolved form of experimental hip-hop, effortlessly weaving elements of R&B, trap, and cloud rap. Meanwhile, her lyrics move from the deeply personal to the political, through to the dreamlike.

“Unique lyrical prowess… An ambitious, atmospheric exploration.” – Queerspace Magazine

DoNormaal’s 2024 album Palmspringa – created in collaboration with producer Welp Disney – was a total grand slam. A deeply personal and uncompromising artistic document, it provided the perfect showcase for Karefa-Johnson’s free-spirited confidence, and her knack for attention grabbing off kilter couplets.

“Capable of connecting directly to the head, the heart and the hips.” – Totally Radio 

“Explosive and low key at the same time… True artistry.” – What’s Up!

This exclusive new single with Heaven’s Lathe, offers up two fresh cuts that display a truly gifted artist working in the vanguard of contemporary music.
