Why isn't my album out yet?

Time, Music, and Navjeevan

I’ve been saying my album is “coming soon” for four or five years now. Time is a concept I’ve never really understood.

Making this album has taught me that. Even though the lyrics were written years ago, I didn’t care how long the process took — I wanted to take the journey. Writing my first project, Eyes Wide Shut (2022), was an experiment: what if I actually turned my writings into recorded songs and released them? I had been writing, singing, and creating my whole life I always know it will be a part of me— what would be the difference if i recorded it?

There was a difference. The process of re-singing, rewriting, re-feeling, and reliving words I once wrote — and then layering them over new sounds, rhythms, and emotions — transformed them. They became something new: for new ears, new judgments, new lessons.

Creating Navjeevan (the album I’m about to start releasing) has been an intentional redefinition of what I want my life to be. It’s been a confusing but beautiful rewiring of my brain, teaching myself new paths that have only made me stronger and given me more beautiful views.

Yes, I’ve been obsessed with making Navjeevan. But that obsession has introduced me to people I never would’ve met, opened doors I never could’ve imagined, and aligned me with opportunities that keep me moving forward at a steady pace.

I know my family hopes I’ll just get a regular job. My old coworkers want me back in youth work. My friends are building families, and it isn't fair to worry my mom like this. But my heart belongs to music.

I’ve given my life to Navjeevan — I’m so thankful for new life. Whos ready to hearrrrr!?
