Living
Art College Audio Production alum Kaya Black is coming back to share
his successes in the industry. You will find him in the Stars Theater on
Thursday, May 29, at 10:30am. Born in Jamaica and named after a song and album from
the reggae legend Bob Marley, Living Arts College alumnus Kaya Black was
surely destined to work in the broadcasting and the music industry. His
father, being a well known entertainment photographer
in Jamaica, was able to mingle backstage at an annual concert
festival called Reggae Sunsplash. The co-founder of the concert also
worked as a radio personality and voiceover artist. Kaya says that’s
where his desire to work in the music industry and radio broadcasting
started at from an early age. Within a month of graduation from Living Arts College, Kaya secured a
full-time management position at Perry Publishing and Broadcasting
Company in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, as a production director where he
oversees the audio production department for two of its urban radio
stations, Power 103.5 FM KVSP and Heart & Soul 92.1 & 1140. Kaya
is also a freelance audio engineer and handles marketing for music
artists. Since graduating Living Arts College in May 2013, Kaya
has worked with artists such as: the 90’s pop band Color Me Badd;
Al B Sure; Grammy award recipient for the first reggae album of the
year, the band Black Uhuru; Grammy award-winning rapper Juicy J; Janelle
Monae; Sebastian Mikael; and Mike Bone, who has been featured on
America’s Got Talent. Follow Kaya at: www.facebook.com/KayaBlackOfficial and www.kayablack.com |
