First Love is the debut studio album by Dominican-American R&B singer Karina Pasian.

[2][3] The album debuted and peaked at number 57 on the US Billboard 200 and produced the singles "16 @ War" and "Can't Find the Words.

On December 3, 2008, it was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album but lost to Mary J. Blige's Growing Pains (2007).

In 2006, after a bidding war between Bad Boy Records, Interscope and Def Jam, Pasian signed with the latter.

[4] AllMusic editor Andy Kellman found that material on First Love was "age-appropriate, a rare thing from a teenaged major-label artist in 2008 [...] Still, the album is as needed as Keke Palmer's So Uncool and Tiffany Evans – proud and smart, real and relatable, packed with substance.
