Singing in the new world

Singing in the new world In the new world of music, time has changed. Sound engineering has transformed the way people hear music. The use of auto tune has increased and computerized voices have been maximized while the number of vocotor singers has minimized. Music has lost its luster & soul; the emotions that a singer and song once brought are simply no longer present. Artists have lost themselves somewhere between the industry and their own music. Record companies have changed their personalities. Music needs a savior. There are so many artists with similar sounds; variety has become a thing of the past. Music once had role models. There will always be a first, but what about the first and the last? Taking the music world by storm, Ki Koy Ki has been performing since the age of four – hitting the stage singing for The Lord. He kept his gospel roots close, even as he grew older in his music career, and has always kept God first. He found his sound and his voice after jumping in the “studio,” recording at the age of fourteen in a basement; he shocked his engineer at the time, which was his cousin. This opportunity opened a door to music. He is a father, son, grandson, brother, cousin, model, hard-worker, dancer, singer, listener, and well-rounded person. Many opportunities have come his way. However, he has often left those opportunities behind for the sake of his family, leaving him at a crossroads in life. The struggles of raising a family along with a relationship full of turmoil, one which ultimately formed a beautiful daughter, gave him life experience, drive, and inspiration. Music has been his wife, often his mistress, but always his significant other and a major piece of his heart. From Los Angeles to Georgia, Florida to New York, his music rings and sings through the internet and local radio stations. EMMM is his first single released this fall. Music needs a savior. Who will blow next? Who has what it takes to change the whole way of thinking revolving around music? Tyrese Gibson agrees that music is fading away. Major recording artists understand this issue; why don’t we? He uses quotes and “hashtags” that stand for what he stands for such as #KIKOYKI, #Industryhitter, #Revaltuationequalsrevalation, #First&Last, #Scaredwho, #MusicMagic, and many more.
