 Evoking nineties vibes with its soulful undercurrent, the track revolves around a sample of “Sitting In The Park” by Billy Stewart. Over this throwback soundscape, she delivers a soulful and nostalgic love song that showcases her unparalleled vocal versatility.

     Regarding the single, she said, “‘Used To’ is about someone finally receiving the love that they’ve always wanted, but aren’t used to receiving. In this generation, a lot of people get bored really fast and move on. I approached from the perspective of ‘old school love’. My definition of ‘old school love’ is someone who stays there unconditionally throughout the good and the bad times.” 


  


 




    In the fall, Kenya served up “Summer (Live).”  Beyond resonating with listeners, iHeart touted her as an “On The Verge Artist” and proclaimed, “The guitar-laced banger allows Vaun to vent her frustrations about life as she craves to escape to a place where summer never ends.” The original studio version of “Summer” has been widely championed. Receiving tastemaker praise, Joe Budden plugged the track on The Joe Budden Network, while Ebro Darden touted it on his “Discovered” playlist on Apple Music.

She impressively delivered her own spin on a freestyle blending rap with melodies at Washington Square Park in NYC, showcasing another side of her talents and asserting her ability to thrive in any lane.

  

   Kenya Vaun channels timeless soul from a fresh and fiery perspective as a 22-year-old R&B singer and songwriter. Born and reared in Philadelphia, she immediately gravitated towards music as a kid. She quietly honed her voice until friends urged her to post “Kick It” online. 2018 saw her captivate listeners with her independent favorite “Movie Night.” 2022’s “Bout’ Me” preceded her signing to 300 Entertainment.
