K.D. Young and I met at his father’s church in Charlotte. That is where I learned about his love for track and introduction to music. He grew up playing the drums in church but transitioned his musical talent to expression. Beginning with music reviews on Youtube, his hobby became his passion. He has gone on to sign fashion deals, flown out for projects, and has made a living off an industry most people think is a dead end. K.D. explains how he got to this point and what the future can be for aspiring artists.
In this episode we discuss:
-Running track in high school
-Being a pastor's son -Connection between music and artistic style -Black diaspora at an HBCU -Fighting to become an artist-How to breakthrough as an artist
