Picturing singer Kat Dahlia is almost impossible because her voice has so much body and presence that you can’t pay attention to anything else. Her sound is like a pop and hip-hop cocktail with a twist of reggae. You can tell that Kat Dahlia writes her own music—everything is raw and personal yet can be light and playful depending on her mood. Her new album, My Garden, just debuted.
We asked Kat Dahlia ten random questions, including one from our twitter follower Alejandro De La Cruz, because hey—to know the flowers in her Garden, we wanted to know who planted the seeds and what made up the soil.
