Bio
Singer Krista Cason comes from a new breed of young talent, born and raised on the mean streets of Philadelphia, she infuses an undeniable melody, with a hip hop twist that she calls "Philly swag" something she has a whole lot of. A big voice in a little body this 4 foot 11 inches 20 year old is already making a name for herself in the Tri-State area and hopes that soon her name will be known internationally.
Krista has been singing since she could speak and writing songs since the age of 11 years old. "I try not to follow the path of others, but instead make my own path for others to follow." Krista has given her blood, sweat, and tears to her music and doesn't plan on stopping anytime soon. At the ripe age of 20, Krista has already performed in numerous talent competitions in Philadelphia, Delaware, New Jersey, Washington DC, and many other places. She also participated and won shows for Jane Harley, talent coordinator for the Apollo Theatre in New York, came in first place at the Philly Apollo, and placed in the Omega Psi Phi talent hunt 3 years in a row.
Krista does charity and youth events also because she is still young and feels that the growing epidemic of young teen mothers and behind bars in unacceptable. She has volunteered at a young unwed mothers shelter for 4 years and performed at prisons in her area around the holiday times. Krista was selected to perform in the community event during the OJays' scholarship weekend in Canton, Ohio.
Krista has also been blessed enough to grace the stage with the likes of Lil Wayne, Peedi Crack, E Ness from Making the Band, Freeway, Beanie Seigel, Gospel Artist Dorinda Clark Cole of the Clark Sisters, Levert II, and most recently she was the opening act for R&B singer Mario.
Her new single "Crazy," which was released on TSOB Records/Federal Label in November 2009, not only shows her ability to get down in the studio, it also shows her love for songwriting.
So keep your eyes and ears ready for this young starlet because she is sure to touch your heart and get the youth excited for this new movement.
To sum it up Krista Cason is 2 things, young and swaggerific.
