Kash Wita K Age: 25 Hometown: Lithonia, GA Writer/ Producer/ Artist Kash Wita K always had a fascination with rap skills, started rapping at the age of 6 while memorizing songs from the redio and writing his own verses to theose songs as well. Songs like Kriss Kross's "Jump Jump" and "I missed The Bus", Da Brat's "Funkdafied", Do or Die's "Po Pimp" and so on. These 90s Rap stars along with Bone Thugs & Harmony, Eighball & MJG, 3-6 Mafia, Kilo Ali and Twister are few of the artists that inspired Kash to write rap lyrics in class throughout his Salem Middle and Lithonia High School years. On his 14th B-Day he says he remembers recieving a karaoke machine that took 2 mics and two cassette tapes and this was when he realized he wanted to persue a career in music. A year later, in class at Lithonia High, he was sitting in a computer class with a guy who had put fruityloops on his computer. Once Kash saw this program and how easy it was to make a beat, he did the same and says he almost failed that class (and chuckles). He would go home after school and make beats on the program also and he and the neighborhood friends would record over the beats using the Karaoke set. He says the first song he ever really recorded was called "The Right To Remain Violent". He says the biggest this to do though was to set the karaoke set in the middle of the room and all the patnas gather-round it and record a freestyle session (good times). After countless days of writing in class, at home, at church and anywhere else he made time to, he graduated from High school in 2003 and went to Savannah State University. Here he wasted no time making it known that he was a rapper and was damn good at it. He teamed up with super producer Smith-Kelly and put together a hit song called "City Boy" in which he would perform at the local club the college students would go to and win the competitions almost effortlessly. He also would got to the clubs on nights they had freestyle battles and says though he wasnt a battle rapper, he had enough local buzz to stay the favorite as long as he didnt say anything quote, "Lame as hell". After a while buzz began to grow about two other gentlemen on campus that also had nice flows and eventually they all linked up on campus in Smith-Kelly's dorm room to do some songs. Needless to say, by the time the group formed Kash already had much practice writing and some performing. And one night they sat up and recorded enough to finish a whole album to push on campus and titled it, "Da Takeova". The school loved the album regardless of the quality of the actual recording itself. Kash says they recorded the album on a computer mic stuck in the corner of an iron box (not an [iron] box, but a box that an iron came in lol). The Omegas liked the album so much that they asked the group to open up for them at a Savannah State Step Show in the Tigers basketball gym. At that point, that was the biggest stage that any of them had been on and let the liquor tell it, "They Rocked That Beesh Mane". The other members of the group left Savannah State to go attend the Art Institute of Atlanta and Kash joined them a year later. But he never re-enrolled in school. As a group though they just continued to make music and perform all throughout the states in the southern region making a name for themselves with their versitile lyrics, catchy beats and energetic stage performances. They went on to put out a mixtape in 2006 entitled "The Hardest Shit You Never Heard" and another in 2007 entitled "Real Recognize Real" w/ Dat Boy Tragic. Kash Wita K is currently working on a solo album that will be released under his label, All In Records, In October of 2010. This album is sure to be one of if not the best underground album to come out in a very long time. Exposure to other styles of music, R&B, Hip-Hop, Neo-Soul, along with his performance history has helped him develop into a well-rounded artist. His mixtapes can be found on websites like DatPiff.com, livemixtapes.com and Southernhiphop.com. He wants to thank everyone that has stood by him and appreciated his music throughout his career and guarantees satisfaction on this upcoming album.
