Kayla Bliss
Born and raised in Flatbush, Brooklyn, with Jamaican heritage, KaylaBliss fuses her backgrounds and creates an edgy but classic merger of R&B and Reggae. With rock hard lyrics and infectious melodies, you cant help but be drawn into her original style.
Ms.Bliss started singing at the tender age of 4. She began learning techniques and musical theory at the age of 10, and hasnt stopped training. While she didnt enjoy the classical music, she embraced it and used it to make her own music crisp and piercing. "I use to experiment when i was younger with different kinds of songs. I would sing classical songs like r&b, and I would sing r&b songs like classical, and so on and so forth. I developed my style that way. I guess it worked because people like it."
Kayla always had a deep love for the English language. "I would cut all my classes for English, and my teacher didnt even snitch on me! She knew how much I loved it".
Her first song was a song entitled "Drowning" that expressed her sorrow after her parents called it quits. The song was therapuetic for her, and her desire was to effect people the same way. She wrote about everything, and from all different perspectives. "I write songs from a father speaking to a daughter perspective, friend to friend, son to mother... most of my inspiration for love songs come from my own experience with my father". KaylaBliss has become one of the most respected and requested upcoming writers over the past year.
KaylaBliss is a proud part of The Brooklyn R&B TakeOver (including Unique, 718, M.V.4, The BeleVista Boys, and Sasha). "We all chill, we all know each other. It kinda takes some of the stress off of the music game. Plus we all from Brooklyn!!!!"
No one can deny that KaylaBliss is an exceptional artist. No one can deny she's a phenomenal writer. Her music is true and personal, and her style is humble and cocky at the same time. You can try to describe it, but the first word that comes to mind will always be "bliss"
