Her album Live from space was released in 2019.[3] The album was composed of Armeen's own tracks and renditions of popular songs. It was recorded and completed with both audio and video done by Dewan Anamul Islam Raju and Tanzim Ahmed Bijoy respectively, in just two days.[5]

In 2022, Armeen made history by becoming the first Bangladeshi composer to be part of a Grammy-nominated album, Shuruat by Berklee Indian Ensemble for the 65th Annual Grammy Awards in the category of Best Global Music Album. The album featured a song composed by Armeen and written by her mother, Nashid Kamal, titled "Jaago Piya".
