Karen Moore Williams
Naja - Poet

Karen Moore-Williams (aka Naja) was born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She is a classically trained musician who has been exposed and influenced by many great artists across various genres. She will tell anyone; “I love a little bit of everything from Prince to Puccini”. Her poetry and spoken word artistry is the focal point of her career.

She was featured on the television show Visions in Philadelphia for her greeting cards designed for Black Men. She was also featured in the Philadelphia Inquirer for her greeting cards for incarcerated men. Her writing has expanded and now includes poetry with music and dance. In collaboration with her husband and soul mate Mr. Robin Williams Sr. her music and poetry were brought to the stage in the production Sweet Like Chocolate: Poetry in Motion. The music and poetry words put audiences in the mood for love, love, love. The debut CD release Sweet Like Chocolate; is mellow and warm.

The recently released (November 2007) Chocolate Aphrodisiac; is hot and funky with a shot of warm soul. The music is composed and produced by husband, Robin who is the inspiration behind the new release. Now I write about the love I share with my husband, soul mate and best friend. He brings out the best in me. All of her music is designed for living, breathing and enjoying the passion and pulse of love.

Robin Williams Sr.
Music Director
Robin Williams was born in Philadelphia and attended school in the Chester school district from kindergarten to middle school. It was there that he started his music journey first playing trumpet and then organ in school. He moved to Philadelphia and attended Germantown High School. At age of 13 he started playing bongos for his church. His first major gig was Carnegie hall playing bongos for his mother the late gospel great Marion Williams. From there he traveled with her overseas and then furthered his music career by playing locally in Philadelphia for major choirs like the Philadelphia Mass Choir, Victory Chorale ensemble and Robert Preston and Wondrous. His music influences include drummers Steve Gadd, Bernard Perdy and Prince. He now functions in the capacity of producer and Music Director for his wife and band Naja.

Robin and Karen have released a spoken word and original music CD (November 2007) “Chocolate Aphrodisiac”. Their love for each other and for music has culminated in a project that speaks to the heart and soul of passion and intimacy. Karen writes the lyrics and poetry and Robin composes the music.
