"A simmering, intoxicating brew." -- Billboard Magazine
"Polished yet fiery, [Bernód's] velvety voice reels you in gently and then leaves you wanting more and more as the intensity builds." -- Chicago Tribune
Who do Mary J. Blige, Chaka Khan, Incognito, D'Angelo, and Erykah Badu have in common? Karen Bernód! You've heard her in the clubs ("Motherland"). You've seen her in music videos (she winked at you in Erykah Badu's "Tyrone"). You heard her background vocals on recordings by music icons including Luther Vandross, Whitney Houston, Paul Simon and Stephanie Mills. So who is this powerhouse singer/songwriter?
A native of Brooklyn, Karen Bernód began pursuing music full-time with the blessing of her late mother, Iris, who always supported Karen 100%. It is because of that support and love that Karen is where she is today.
Karen's musical influences include Natalie Cole, Roberta Flack and Chaka Khan. Karen previously toured the world with D'Angelo, Erykah Badu, and Incognito. It is with Incognito that Karen recorded three tracks - "Marrakech," "More of Myself" (from the 1999 release "No Time Like the Future") and "Yesterday's Dreams" (from the 2000 release "The Best of Incognito").
Karen Bernód presents her independent debut project, "Some Othaness For U." From the love letter to Men of Color on "Endangered Specie" to the celebration of the African rhythms on "The Pocket," Karen soothes your mind and soul with her velvety tones. Lay back and relax to "Chillin' on the DL" -- something we all need to do some time. Then listen to your "Spirit" and find your inner peace. After you taste Karen's sonic morsels you will agree this is definitely "Some Othaness For U."

A soulful version of the Pied Piper, she'll keep everyone following.
author: Leah J.Karen's music is so soulful and soultry that, as you listen, it takes you in. It swallows you while it fills you up, and to a music lover, that is a wonderful feeling. It is absolutely an experience not to be missed...and that's exactly what I tell everyone that has ears. Kudos, Karen!!!
BBBBBAAAAADDDD

Karen has taken the Neo-soul genre to another level
author: Vaughn BratcherThe CD is well produced. Good hooks. Good writing. The musicians on the album are 1st rate! A very good cross over of Old School Funk and Neo-Soul!
Soul quenching, serious driving music

WoW this a beautiful work of art
author: AlanThe first two songs(endangered species & chillin' on the DL) are cool no doupt, but 3-9 gets heavy rotation up in here. Add this album to your collection. You will not be dissapionted, I promise
Must have to chill with the Lady!!!
author: HezzaThe Lady, glass of whine, hot tub, and Karen. Enough said!!!
Deep, deep, deep...
author: LouI was overwhelmed by "Spirit", "Chillin' on the DL" and "The Rest of My Life", while "Do ya wanna do" and "The Pocket" made me get my groove on!!!!

author: Bianchi Veal IsaacThis CD 100% captures the type of music I collect. Sultry sound, mixed with jazz and upbeat. For your listening pleasures.
Chillin' with Karen
author: John FulghumI just purchased this CD and sure do like it. It is a beautifully crafted work of art. The songs are all good from start to end and relate to life spiritually. The lyrics to most of these songs are true about everyday life and reality.
Karen takes you to groove and funk with all the soulful songs in this album!
author: Only1ailaThis indie album can make a huge success competing with all the coolest jazzfunk-soul-hiphop-triphop albums from major labels.
