Kali Uchis

Kali Uchis is without question, a multitalented powerhouse in the music industry. She is not just a singer and songwriter, but also a creative director, producer, actress, and designer. Her creative versatility, originality, and passion for music are evident in her work, earning her a distinguished place, not just in the Latin music scene, but on the global stage as well.

Born and raised between the vibrant cultures of Colombia and Northern Virginia, Kali Uchis soaked up diverse musical influences from an early age. She honed her musical skills playing the piano and the saxophone in a jazz band, which exposed her to the world of music and sparked her enduring love for the art.

Her career skyrocketed with the release of her debut album "Isolation" in 2018, featuring collaborations with notable names such as the Gorillaz, Tyler the Creator, Tame Impala, Thundercat, and BBNG. This album was more than just a collection of songs; it was a showcase of Kali Uchis' unique sound, layered musicality and an outstanding ability to resonate with her listeners.

Her track "See You Again" featuring Tyler the Creator, released in 2017, stands as the pinnacle of her success so far, amassing over 1.1 billion streams on Spotify, giving her a broad international audience. However, her overall impact on the music platform is even more impressive, totaling over 7.1 billion streams up to date.

Despite her early success, Kali Uchis showed no signs of resting on her laurels. Her single “10%” alongside Kaytranada won her a Grammy in 2021, underlining her continual authoritative presence in the music line. She followed this up with her second album, "Sin Miedo", which not only further enhanced her reputation for producing high-quality music but also achieved a landmark of sorts. She became the only female artist to make it to the top ten on Billboard’s Latin chart in 2020.

This album especially underlines her deep connection to her Latin roots. The single "Telepatía" from the album also received significant recognition, with the highest debut on Billboard for a Latin song. Aptly named, “Sin Miedo” (Without Fear), she continues her journey fearlessly challenging musical boundaries while paying homage to her cultural roots.

Kali Uchis's story is one of talent, determination, and a deep-rooted love for music. Her journey, while impressive, is only beginning. With roots in two diverse musical civilizations, together with her unique style of blending pop, R&B, reggae, and soul, it is obvious to note that Kali Uchis is still on her way to greater heights in her career, and there is so much more to look forward to from this extraordinary artist.
