Hi! I'm Karas –– a Philadelphia-bred writer. I contribute to digital platforms, print publications, streaming series and creative campaigns. I have worked in music for over a decade, writing for releases from Secretly Group, Entertainment One/Last Gang Records, ANTI-, Blue Note Records, Ears & Eyes Records and Revive Music Group. My bylines include Okayplayer.com, Pitchfork, Entertainment Weekly, Wax Poetics, and Blackstar Film Festival’s SEEN Journal. Broadcast and streaming credits include Gunpowder & Sky and NIKE, Inc. Artist discovery and breaking new music are my passions. Storytelling is my profession. Cultural preservation is my life's work. My latest chapter finds me bringing my talents to advertising. My goal is to work at the intersection of entertainment and creative branding with an emphasis on creative direction and production. Please reach out! I would love to chat about working together. In the meantime, feel free to send me your mixtape.
