About Karma Rivera
Karma Rivera is a Chicago-born rapper and songwriter turning her personal love stories into cinematic alt-rap confessionals.
Her debut album Priceless (2025) is a queer odyssey of love, loss, and self-reclamation—an intoxicating blend of hyperpop-inspired island beats, bedroom jams, and bold, sensual lyricism. Rivera’s vocals move with delicate grit and low-key sweetness, carrying an emotional honesty that feels both intimate and universal.
Now a mainstay in Portland’s evolving hip-hop scene, the proud Boricua artist brings her culture, queerness, and storytelling to the forefront—bridging worlds with music that’s as heartfelt as it is hypnotic.
