Kay Miyagi

Kay Miyagi was born in Alexandria,VA and raised in New Bern,NC. Growing up in country trailer parks he listened to a variety of music such as, r&b, country, hip hop, rock, classic and jazz. As a nine year old he spent a summer with his grandmother in Virginia where he watched endless hip hop videos in her basement, and at the tender age of nine he realized that hip hop is where his passion lied. Kay enlisted in the military in 2009 and shortly after moved to Washington State.

His musical inspirations include Nas and A Tribe called Quest but his all time favorite is Erykah Badu, “style, stage presence, creativity, her affect, and most of all the reality of her work…just amazing!” according to Kay Miyagi. He is currently working on a mixtape called Building Fantasies for the work it takes to reach a dream that seems untouchable.

When asked what type of style he has his reply was: “I’ve always considered my music to be wide awake dreaming…….if that makes sense,?? like the state where you can’t believe what’s happening but you know it’s real you know?” - 503TV
