CELEBRATE KIM’S MUSICAL JOURNEY
KIM’S MUSICAL TIMELINE
In less than 3 years’ time, God has taken Kim from beginning steps on a music faith journey to chart-topping BILLBOARD artist.
Kim has always had a deep love of music.
Growing up, before and after school, she would daily put on her favorite artists’ records. Singing and belting, she would give herself private concerts. Kim also wrote lyrics to melodies in her head, though she never shared them with anyone. She went on to study law, becoming a partner practicing litigation, but found herself doing entertainment law on the side . Never did she think she would one day become a charting artist herself.
May 2017
As a best-selling author, Kim knows how to write novels. But when God calls her to write a scripted web series, she’s on new territory. She has no idea what this faith journey will entail. Kim begins praying about the journey.
June 2018
Kim asks award-winning producer Lamontt Blackshire to produce the soundtrack for the series. He agrees, telling her she should consider writing the songs. This makes no sense, since he knows nothing of Kim’s love of music or that she’d written lyrics as a teen. She started praying for lyrics, knowing this was God’s hand.
July 2018
Kim’s producer hears the songs Kim has written, which she sung on a voicemail demo. He tells her she should sing the hooks (choruses) on a few songs. He has no idea Kim’s secret dream is to sing. Kim is blown away and really leans into prayer.
