The Soulful & Electrifying sounds of NaGem will illuminate & elevate the vibration of any Pop, RnB, Jazz, Soul, Country or EDM track. Her ability to tell stories with both her lyrics and voice is refreshing and exhilarating.
Versatile Vocalist, Arranger and Vocal Producer, Nagem! I work with musical artists to create one of kind projects via songwriting, vocal production and arrangements, background vocals and the like. I can adjust my style and tone to fit your arrangement. I can exude the prowess of Aretha Franklin or Ann Wilson of Hart with the soft sultry sounds of Diana Ross, Ariana Grande and India Arie.
Send me a message and we’ll discuss your project and see if I’m a fit for you!
I’ll send you an mp3 rough mix for your approval, do one round of revisions for free if needed, then once you approve and release funds, I will send all stems as wav files dry/raw, completely tuned and edited. Turn around times vary based on scheduling at this time. Reach out to discuss!
**1 free revision is included. Revisions are a handful of small changes, not a rerecording.**
**Turn around times vary from 4 days to 2 weeks based on availability. Expedite for $100 when available!**
