Ladi6 - Le Vā (CD)
Multi-award-winning Aotearoa hip-hop and R&B artist Karoline Fuarosa Park-Tamati MNZM aka Ladi6 is back with a deeply personal album, Le Vā – her fifth album and first full-length release in over seven years.
Renowned for her authentic storytelling and magnetic stage presence, Ladi6 has carved a path that honours her Pacific identity and the stories that shaped her while pushing the boundaries of contemporary music.
A soulful return and creative reinvention, Le Vā marks a powerful new chapter in Ladi6’s celebrated career, offering a soundscape that is both intimate and expansive, rooted in wavey electronic soul, textured beats and emotional depth.
The album marks a shift in sound and process: Ladi6 and her production team, Parks (Brent Park) and Bharu (Brandon Haru), let go of old systems and rediscover their creative flow. The result is a stunning evolution of her signature sound, layered with new vulnerabilities and perspectives born of personal growth.
Le Vā is a sonic offering of healing, transformation, and legacy. The album serves as an invitation: to feel, to remember, and to move forward – together.
Working closely with longtime collaborator Robert Wallace from Parallel Teeth, Ladi6 has created a stunning vinyl edition of Le Vā that captures the spirit of the project.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
