Brooklyn-born artist Kenjah blends reggae, Afrobeats, R&B, and pop influences in a vibrant celebration of love, culture, and self-expression.
As her presence continues to grow on screen, actress and singer-songwriter Kenjah is stepping into a defining new chapter of her musical journey with her latest single ‘When I’m With You’, a radiant fusion of Caribbean rhythms, Afrobeats energy, contemporary R&B, and pop designed to bring listeners straight to the dancefloor.
The track arrives as Kenjah’s profile continues to rise through her recurring role on CBS’s daytime drama Beyond the Gates, where she is approaching her 100th episode and is being considered for recognition at the 2026 Daytime Emmy Awards. While television has introduced her to a wider audience, music remains a deeply personal expression of her identity, heritage, and creative vision.
Born and raised in Brooklyn to Jamaican parents, Kenjah has built an artistic voice rooted in Caribbean culture while embracing the global sounds shaping today’s music landscape. With ‘When I’m With You’, she channels that heritage into a warm, uplifting love song that celebrates connection beyond outside opinions and expectations.
“Blending Caribbean, Afrobeat, and Pop Reggae vibes, When I’m With You is a feel-good anthem about a love that remains unbreakable despite outside opinions or pressure,” Kenjah said.
The single captures the feeling of a summer romance through a rich blend of island-inspired instrumentation and modern production. Electric guitar melodies glide throughout the arrangement, while reggae-influenced drum transitions create movement and energy. The song opens with smooth harmonies delivered in Jamaican Patois before expanding into hypnotic verses and a memorable chorus built around layered vocal arrangements.
Rather than relying on a single genre, Kenjah uses the track as a meeting point between her Jamaican roots and her contemporary influences. The result is a record that feels equally suited for playlists, beachside speakers, and late-night dancefloors.
The release is also accompanied by an upcoming cinematic official music video, continuing Kenjah’s focus on visual storytelling. That same creative approach has shaped her acting career, where she continues to expand her résumé with a lead role in an upcoming Lifetime feature film, following appearances alongside major Hollywood names including Will Ferrell, Zac Efron, and Regina Hall.
Across both music and acting, Kenjah’s work reflects recurring themes of romance, resilience, and empowerment. Her signature regal bohemian style, blending Caribbean influences with contemporary sophistication, has helped her cultivate an audience drawn to her artistic versatility.
With ‘When I’m With You’, Kenjah delivers more than a seasonal anthem. The single serves as a celebration of love that remains strong despite external pressure, while marking another milestone in the career of an artist continuing to expand her creative world across television, film, and music.
