We had the good fortune of connecting with Kaiya Hamilton and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kaiya, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
It was an easy decision to make because this is a passion of mine. I’ve been singing since I was a kid so making this m y career was not task.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I feel what sets me apart is my originality. I’ve never been told I sound like any other singer or artist, although I admire quite a few of them. I’m so excited about my musical journey this year. It’s my first project so I’m ecstatic. I started as a teenager and still I’m pursuing my career now. I’ve faced quite a few challenges but I’ve never let them stop me. It has been a long road but I’m grateful for every obstacle I’ve had to endure to get where I am today. I’ve learned so much since being a teen when I first started my career. You have to work really hard and be very persistent in this game. When I release my first ep this year I want everyone to experience who I am as an artist and my passion for music.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I would go to Piedmont Park first ,I love the park. Later on in the day an escape room. last but not least a 24 hour pho restaurant! The next day would probably got to flying biscuit for brunch, go to the mall for a little bit, and then end the night at little place called loca luna!

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I want to dedicate my shoutout to my family. They have been extremely supportive of my journey. I couldn’t ask for a better support system.
