Chicago-born rapper Karma Rivera blurs the line between rapper and vocalist, equally at home delivering clever bars and melodic hooks over sounds shaped by hip-hop, R&B and Caribbean influences.

Karma has spent more than a decade independently building her career, earning more than 1 million streams while cultivating a growing audience across the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Her debut album, Priceless, showcases an artist who refuses to stay in one lane, moving seamlessly between hard hitting rap records, melodic hooks and emotionally honest songwriting.

Recently welcomed into the Recording Academy's 2026 New Member Class, Karma is entering a new chapter focused on professional development, new collaborations and bringing Priceless to new audiences.

While Priceless is Rivera's debut album, she is by no means a newcomer. She was named to Willamette Week's Best New Bands list in 2019, contributed to the creative team behind the unveiling of Portland International Airport's iconic new mass timber roof, and received the Trailblazer Award at the 2025 PDX Star Awards during Portland's annual Hip Hop Week. In 2026, Rivera expanded into theater, making her stage debut as Sayda in Milagro Theatre's Pacific Northwest premiere of Brown Face.
