Artist History
Hi everybody. For those of you who don't know, my name is Kartinya. First of all I would like to thank you for visiting my website, it means a lot to me. Let's see, my story is pretty simple. I am 20-something years old and originally from Little Rock, Arkansas. I have always loved music, but I didn't always know that this is what I was put on Earth to do. After I graduated high school I joined the Air Force. The Air Force took me all around the world. I went to Texas, North Dakota, Florida, South Korea, Japan, Seattle, Canada, Kansas, and then eventually the Air Force dropped me off in New Jersey. Throughout my journey I had a lot of tremendous experiences that inspired me to write, and I met a lot of awesome musicians, writers, and producers. My last year in the military is when I decided that I wanted to make writing, singing, and performing a career so I started going on auditions and working on a demo. While I was working on trying to land that "big record deal", music became all work and no fun. I actually started to hate it. The bottom line was, the more involved I became in trying to get a major deal, the more I began to loose myself. The lyrics I was singing weren't me. I didn't sound like me. I didn't even look like me anymore. It was a very rude awakening, but I needed it. I finally came to a point where I decided to stop trying to please everybody. I decided to make music my way. So in 2006 I started Sole Life Music, my indie record label and became my own musical boss.

 "Where Were You?" is the latest single from Soulful R&B artist Kartinya. This track definitely leaves you wanting to hear more. The sound is fresh and Kartinya's voice is beautiful and packs a punch. The song has a thick beat and the instrumentation is subtle and yet interesting. It nicely showcases this Diva's voice. The song has a "Tell It To Ya" attitude and urges you to want to sing along. Her lyrics are original and her delivery rolls right off the tongue. This single is definitely radio ready, as the production value is excellent. If you enjoy female R&B artists, such as Mary J. Blige and Beyonce' Knowles, you will enjoy this single. -William and the RadioIndy.com Reviewer TeamCheck out Kartinya's music on RadioIndy.com with link to purchase and links to popular sitesa |
