At the tender age of three, Kari showed natural talent and an interest in music. One day, while playing at a neighbor's house, Kari's talent was discovered by Hollywood Film Producer, Cassius Weathersby who formed a little girls group, placed her on stage, and she has been singing ever since.
Kari knew early on that she wanted to be either a singer or a poet. "I loved to sing and write poems and I wasn’t afraid to perform on stage". She continued her pursuit of music by performing in various school and community talent shows, social events, and drama productions. Those shows earned her invitations to join singing groups and work with some of the best songwriter/artists, and amazing producers in the industry. Her session work includes work for recording labels Universal Music, Interscope, Sony, MCA, Capitol, Motown, MCA, Solar Records, and more. Kari’s collaborations opened the door to various entities of the music industry - recording sessions, opening for headliners, tours, performing in night clubs, and concerts, festivals, which is exposing her talent to the industry.
