KarlaGod - The Mix - Lyric (Release Date November 1st)

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.

JUNK

Is there something in there that you don't need but for some reason you keep holding onto? You tell yourself that'll you'll need it one day, but it seems like that day never comes. You keep it in your garage, basement or roof house, it just keeps taking space and never bringing any value. You have a sentimental attachment to your junks. DANGEROUS  Your body, mind and soul is like a house. Don't keep junks in it !!! Junks like Gossips Junks like Bitterness Junks like Bad memories Junks like Hate Junks like Guilt Junks like Malice Junks like Assumptions Put them out in the trash and let them go. You might have a sentimental attachment to that bitterness because you were the one wronged, but the truth is, when you keep that junk you prevent the good stuff from coming in. You were wronged, -yes-, forgive and let go, don't keep the junk of malice around, too much junk causes cancer !!! If the thoughts you are holding unto are...

IF YOU HAD........

What would you do with 10 million pounds? Don’t answer in a hurry, though I haven’t asked anybody yet – I know that the responses I would get will be very funny, and maybe some might be enlightening. But I do know of one person that will get married in less than a year if he has  £1,000,000 , hahahahahahahahaha (I hope he’s reading this now), he says “ with the kind of ladies we have around, you’ll just wake up one morning and find out you are married, a ring in your finger and the lady beside you on the bed ” can’t stop laughing because, there is some truth in that. OK, so here goes..... THIS IS WHAT I WOULD DO WITH 10 MILLION POUNDS ( £10,000,000) 1 st   I would most definitely pay my tithe, and yes, I WOULD MOST DEFINITELY PAY MY TITHE, and yes I would….. ok, I think I’ve made my point, that is   £1,000,000   as tithe. 2 nd   I would give my partnership of  £1,000,000   yes, I know, I know, partnership reps would love me (se...

Anticipating the Mix-Lyric (AUGUST 1ST)

Intro - THE BIRTH OF KARLA GOD This was my first ever attempt at rap, it was my first ever rap related work, I wrote this at a stage in my life when I didn't even know what punch lines were, I didn't even know or had the inclination that I could become a rapper as at the time I wrote this. So in November 2014 when White Mic, picked me and said “You seem bold, you’re bold, I think you can rap, come I’ll teach you”, I went to him and he took me on 2 rap classes, the things he taught me spiked something in me, it was like he brought out rap from me, even when I didn't know it was there. After the classes he gave me an assignment, to write a spoken word, I picked one of my write ups from my archive of “stuff I have written” which was this one, tweaked some lines, and made it into my introduction. SO HERE GOES THE LYRICS You know language is limiting, especially in English speaking How do you express what you feel in words in respect to the speed of your ...
