Kamaiyah quickly rose to fame back in 2017 thanks to a string of strong songs and guest appearances, most notably “Why You Always Hatin?” with YG and Drake. Signed to the My Krazy Life rapper’s 4Hunnid imprint at the time, Kamaiyah departed the label to do things her own way. The result? Two projects in the span of seven months: February’s Got It Made and September’s Oakland Nights. To most, a pair of releases would be enough in a calendar, but not to Kamaiyah as the West coast native returned with a new song and news of a third project set to arrive by the end of the year.
