Berlin-based vocalist, composer, and producer KOOB delivers a visceral statement with “Therapist,” the lead single from her new album Off Head, out now. Known for fusing avant-jazz, experimental soul, and improvisational spontaneity, KOOB channels emotional overload into a bold, chaotic, and cathartic sonic experience.
Written during a moment of disorientation on a Berlin train, “Therapist” captures the tension between resistance and vulnerability. Broken rhythms, swirling textures, and defiant vocals reflect a psyche stretched thin, yet grasping for clarity. The track unfolds like an emotional spiral — part free-form jazz breakdown, part poetic exorcism — with KOOB’s distinctive voice grounding the chaos in truth.
With echoes of Hiatus Kaiyote’s unpredictability and the lyrical fire of Akua Naru, “Therapist” sets the tone for Off Head: raw, fearless, and emotionally unfiltered. KOOB isn’t just bending genres — she’s translating emotional noise into something beautifully human.
