Description

There is a kinetic energy that binds drummer and producer Karriem Riggins and singer-songwriter, rapper, and producer LIV.e, the spark that happens when instinct meets flow and spirit finds rhythm.
Their collaborative debut as GENA (short for "God Energy, Naturally Amazing," and loosely inspired by Gina from Martin), The Pleasure Is Yours feels like a playful, soulful conversation between two kindred improvisers: LIV.e's smoky, unpolished vocals glide through Riggins' warm, percussive universe. Rooted in jazz, soul, and hip-hop, LIV.e brings a raw, experimental approach to R&B, while Riggins - known for his work with Common, Erykah Badu, The Roots, Madlib, and his close kinship with J Dilla - extends his lifelong dialogue between jazz improvisation and beat science. Together they create a world that's analog and ethereal, percussive and poetic, bridging eras without settling in one - the sound of two artists finding a new shared language rooted in rhythm, vulnerability, and exuberance.
