Jamaican-born/Florida-based Producer/Musician/Recording Artist Kris-Karz has been on the scene for a number of years, and when he’s not producing for the likes of Kapital Stone, Royal Blu, Blvk H3ro, Dylan Golden, and Lola Jaan, he’s putting together his own music to speak about love, relationships, and life overall. He has gained recognition in Jamaica, throughout parts of the United States, and other parts of the world, but recently his profile expanded to new territories thanks to his recent placement with popular American Magazine, Architectural Digest.

Architectural Digest expanded their platform to host a number of video-based content on Youtube in recent years, where they feature property, Interior Design, and landscaping from celebrities, and other big names. For their latest entry in their “Open Door” series, they highlighted property from Miami Heat superstar, Jimmy Butler. The 14 minute clip showcased the NBA star’s Southern California Mansion with designs from popular Interior Decorator Tiffany Brooks, and featured music from Kris-Karz’s “Portraits” project. “Portraits” was a project that was announced in 2021 but not fully released, and included the singles “LUST”, “LOVE”, and “ENERGY”. The Instrumental for the tracks “LOVE” and “ENERGY” were featured in the closing of the video, along with other production from Karz that were played in various parts.

“This is truly a blessing for me,” shared Kris-Karz. “I have been making music for well over 15 years, and this placement is a huge accomplishment for me. Sometimes you don’t know who will connect with your music, and to know that the Architectural Digest team loved it enough to include it in their content, i’m truly grateful for the opportunity. For those who ever had doubts about their talent, keep pushing because your moment and more are just around the corner. Believe in yourself.”

Kris-Karz, born Kris-Anthony Smith in Manchester, Jamaica, is the founder of Kngly Studios, and its main Producer and Recording Artist. He is also the mind behind the Youtube Acoustic series, “Kngly Live”, which provided a platform for Recording Artists and Musicians from South Florida and surrounding areas to showcase their talent. He has produced for a number of local and overseas-based Artists, and has performed at a number of events in Miami, Atlanta, and northern parts of America. As a Recording Artist, he has released singles such as, “LUST”, “Heartbreak”, “Text Me”, “GUSH”, and more recently “Safe With Me”. He is currently finalizing a number of releases to close off 2024, and kick off 2025. 

The new “Open Door” episode featuring Jimmy Butler is now available for viewing on Architectural Digest’s Youtube channel. Kris-Karz’s latest singles “GUSH” and “Safe With Me” are out now on all digital music streaming platforms.
