Rapper, songwriter and singer Karma Nai brings a refreshing blend of Caribbean language and rhythm to Hip Hop and Rap music. Born in Dominica, she was raised in Antigua and Barbados, exposing her to a mixture of Caribbean cultures and, at the same time, sparking her love of travel.
Her first introduction to Rap music was with Eminem at a young age, but she was already a writer. Exercise books with corners covered in what she meant to be poems became her first songs, and then her first raps once she recognized her love of the genre. Popular Caribbean influences such as Bob Marley (with whom she shares her birthday) and David Rudder led her to incorporate Caribbean pronunciations and slang words in her music renditions and, as she grew, this became her signature.
