Oku's debut Album, "Free Expression", explores the dynamic reality of her relationships and experiences. She deep dives into bliss, suffering, and what it means to be free. She discovers creative expression is her own key to freedom.

Free Expression

Oku Mixtapes

Familiar captures maintaining power and confidence amidst frustrations of miscommunication and disappointment in modern dating. The vocals express the tired, repetitive, and all too familiar experience of hope paired with unmet expectations in romance. The backing beat and bassline melodies symbolize a driving sense of grit as the song weaves through waves of mystery and confidence.

Familiar

Rose Quartz is about the shortness and sweetness of life, being free, loving yourself, and enjoying each moment.

You are part of the universe 
You do complete the world 
The world is your playground 
How will you express yourself?

We are not around for long 
Why not spread the love?
My flame will soon go out 
All I have is now 

I may as well dance until the sundown 
I may as well feel what it is to be free 
I may as well fall in love with myself 
I may as well love what it is be 

You are part of my universe 
You deserve all the love (all the love, all the love, all the love)
The world is your stage (oooh-aaah)
Go on don't be afraid 

We are not around for long 
Why not spread the love?
My flame will soon go out 
All I have is now 

All I have is now

I may as dance until the moonrise 
I may as well feel the rain on my skin 
I may as well believe in myself
I may as well feel the power within (within, within, within) 

I may as well dance until the sundown 
I may as well feel what it is to be free 
I may as well fall in love with myself 
I may as well love what it is to be

Rose Quartz

sometimes it takes darkness to see
the light in you 
sometimes it hurts always will pass 
we're gonna get through 

i'll do what i can to hold this space 
i've been in my mind hiding place 
if you hold my hand do you feel love 
if you look into those skies 

sometimes i can't get out of my head 
of my head 
sometimes i feel so alone 
but i know

i'll do what i can to hold this space 
i've been in my mind hiding place
if you, if you, if you hold my hand 
if you, if you, hold
