Charisma is an aspiring artist in the Indie Pop genre of the hip hop scene. Based out of L.A. Charisma is a talented artist coming up and looking to make a name for her self, and we here at Nefarious Supply are excited to see where this young talented lady will go! Here is the Nefarious Supply exclusive interview with Charisma.

Tell us about yourself? What’s your background, where were you raised, so that we can put a person to the name.

 I grew up singing in church with my brother Cal, that’s how it all started. Ever since I was a little girl, I grew up listening to Michael Jackson, The Bee Gees, ABBA, George Michael. All of the greats and Christian music. Over the years, my passion and hunger for music kept growing, and I thought maybe it is what I wanted to do. At 14, was when I went to my first studio recording session for my Gospel album. At 16 I moved out here to LA, with my brother Cal and ever since we have been grinding and hustling & fighting for what we are passionate about.

Why the name Charisma? It is a very interesting name, and we would love to hear the story behind it.

 My artistry and my music lives up to my name Charisma which makes it even more powerful. With my name my mom thought of it to be a great name for me, there was no story to it, but I do thank her for making that decision, because whenever I introduce myself people think of it to be my stage name, when its actually my real name. 

Where are you representing, and what makes the scene there so unique from the rest of the world to you?

I am representing my country India, and being it my hometown its unique in its own way. Since I’m based here in LA, I would like to represent my ethnicity in my music and just elements of the culture that we were brought in. 

 What music inspires you? Can you give some specific names and genres that make up what your inspiration is?

Soul/R&B and hip hop. Artists I look up to definitely Amy Winehouse, Anita Baker, Sade and I love the 80's sound. Their melodies and rythms were the best.

How would you describe your music?

My music is alternative Indie pop. Im always looking to do something different, that’s what fits my brand and style as an artist.

If you were to make any other type of music, or start to mesh genres what would you want to

work on?

If I were to make any other type of music it would be R&B and soul with an added 80's touch to it.

If you were to collaboration with any artist, famous or underground, who would you pick and why?

I would love to collaborate with J.Cole, just cause he’s my inspiration and his lyrics reflect on what I do always on point and thinking out of the box and giving people encouragement and hope through the channel of music, and it would be an honor to feature him in my songs. 

Can you tell us about any future projects coming up for you? Any hints on what we can look for?

 I just released my  second song called On A Roll after releasing my debut single King that gained over a million streams combined. Thankful for that like king had it own story , On a roll got its own story of being  a true hustler and to fight for what your passionate about. On a roll music video will be out soon and i'm excited.

Is there anything you would like to say to your fans? And anything you would like as a conclusion to this interview?

Be yourself, always put yourself first and those who love you. Know your worth, and always believe that you can do anything
