Kahnma the West African Songtress

16 bars won’t be necessary, all it takes is a single note from Kahnma to command the attention of any room. Although small in physical stature, this West African princess has stage presence that is as enormous as any super star. Kahnma’s genuine and honest music is a step in a new direction leading us on a delightfully fulfilling path. Her soulful style masterfully blends R&B and Reggae, and with it Kahnma is guaranteed to have the industry’s attention.

Yet it hasn’t been all melodious harmonies for Kahnma. She is no stranger to struggle, at the tender age of ten Kahnma fell victim to Liberia's civil crisis, which landed her as a refugee in America. Since then her sole purpose has been to bridge the gap between African and American culture through her music. She plans on doing this by being able to relate to her American audience and as well as bringing awareness to the destruction of her homeland. Identifying with the struggles of Bob Marley, the drive of Lauryn Hill and the playfulness of TLC, she's uses her love for music to overcome her battle of being what she calls a "war baby".

As a singer songwriter, and performer, Kahnma has worked with R&B star Montel Jordan, opened up for Musiq Soulchild, Blu Cantrell, and Bad Boy recording artists Boyz n The Hood. Most recently she will be featured on Bizzy Bone's latest album. Kahnma can be seen performing in clubs all over the country including Atlanta, Georgia's Apache Cafe, Columbus, Ohio's Brownstone and the legendary House of Blues in Los Angeles, California. With the acceptance of artists such as Beenie Man, Baby Cham, and Def Jam recording artist Rhianna, the world of entertainment is more then ready to fine tune their ears to what the lovely Miss Kahnma has to offer.
