Returning with his brand-new single ‘Lotus’, this comes ahead of his debut album, Purity, slated for release on February 2, 2024 on all streaming platforms.

The upbeat, carefree-sounding piece ‘Lotus’, with a hint of melancholy, showcases senna JMB’s natural musical ability. Vocals, guitar, beats, synths, and samples are all used in the production of the cloud rap song. senna JMB’s bars and the interesting production make for an engrossing listen.

Focusing on a persona, senna JMB intended the song to represent a character who fails because of hybris; the song exaggerates this picture while addressing the concept of being an artist. The chorus developed after the guitar lines and synths were added. The bridge, some additional sounds, and more vocals were added. It’s one of senna JMB’s most edgy songs off the upcoming album.

On the track, senna JMB says, “a hybris-driven crash, a phantasized hyperbole of artistry.”
