KAMAUU

A higher calling of service interconnects humanity as a whole. On a primal and subconscious level, we all share a universal sense of duty. Washington D.C.-born and New York-based artist, rapper, poet, and thinker KAMAUU celebrates the call to serve. In fact, it propels and fuels his own creativity as each and every musical move and mood results from a dutiful responsibility.

“Everything on the planet is here to serve the ecosystem, and we’re not the exception—because we were created here just like everything else was,” he says. “There’s a certain level of bliss we give ourselves access to when we contribute to something bigger. My point is not necessarily to be a musician, but to serve. However, I can do so through music,” he smiles.

He’s been serving through music since the dawn of his own existence. Joking he “came out of the womb singing,” his childhood and musical taste would be enriched by a close and inspiring relationship with his parents and open exchange of ideas.

As such, KAMAUU’s mind expanded at a dramatic pace.

“My dad always was and still is a great appreciator and collector of records and art from around the world,” he goes on. “He quenched his own thirst to travel by surrounding himself with the places he wanted to go. I grew up a well-traveled child without the funds to travel physically.”

In the end, KAMAUU’s commitment to service will undoubtedly encourage listeners for a long time to come.
“I hope I can inspire others to grow,” he leaves off. “I’m not a teacher; I’m just a classmate. I don’t have a lesson plan, but I have some notes I hope to share in my songs. Living and serving will only create better art over time.”
