Hey guys, MIX-LYRIC, hits the internet on November 1st.
That's 3 days from today. This is a short intro about KarlaGod and my journey on the MIX LYRIC.
Stay tuned!
Feel free to leave questions and comment.
- Who is KarlaGod?
Karla God is a God lover, a Jesus Freak and a Rap artiste. I am a writer, I love that I get to create something out of nothing, with words, it’s one of the most beautiful thing for me.
So people keep asking me, “What does KarlaGod mean, why KarlaGod?” my answer - "my first name is Karla and God is my Father, so I answer His name".
And then they tell me I should find a Euphemism for God, I should use El, or Nissi, etc…. it's quite funny lol, but guys, it is what it is - “God” and I am not changing anything, it’s KarlaGod and that’s final.
- When did you start rap music?
I had two rap classes with White Mic. He called me one day in October 2014 and said "you're bold, I think you can rap, come, I'll teach you".
And that was how I got launched into hiphop.
I started rapping officially, in November 2014, I started with two spoken words, before I did my first 4 bars on stage with D'Edifyer and Membrane, during a Christmas program - XOC (X-mas on Campus) - it's funny how I came to write those 4 bars, I trust two of my SOT brothers will be laughing somewhere now.
- About the Mix - Lyric
The Mix Lyric is my first introduction to the world, it’s my first EP (Extended Play), I named it Mix Lyric, because the words- the lyrics in the tracks really mean a lot to me.
But more importantly, this is like my "Baby Steps", this is KarlaGod "Mixing lyrics" to experiment, just like a young science genius does with chemical elements, he experiments with the chemicals, finding out, how one chemical reacts with the other, what methods to use and so on and so forth, and in the process increases his knowledge, experience and consequently his competence.
So, Mix-Lyric is me experimenting, with rap and in the processes learning more about my art, how to improve my flow, audibility depth to my lyrics and more.
This is what Mix-Lyric is to me.
- What was the journey like creating the Mix-Lyric?
It's been awesome, I never would be able to achieve any of this without my producer, Enoch D'Edifyer.
he played a major role in bringing this to fruition, the late nights kept, the all nighters pulled, the times when he worked on an empty stomach (lol, lolzzzzzz) oh my God, it was amazing, he is the best.
And then for me, it made me see in a new light. I could identify clearly what I needed to improve on and what I needed to do away with as an artiste.
