Little Rock, Arkansas’ own Kari Faux is stopping at nothing to prove she has what it takes. Since the world was introduced to the young, talented rapper with her hit single “Gahdamn” last year, she has emerged as a trendsetter with her own unique style and sound ready to take over the game.

Kari has the talent and plans to not only be seen as just another artist coming from her area, but the drive to make it happen. She has the blazing fire and the work ethic to make it happen, showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon.

We caught up with Kari for our latest Civil Scope interview, where we talked about how she got her start, her upcoming debut album Lost En Los Angeles set to drop April 8th, her collaboration with Childish Gambino, moving to L.A., and much more.

Check out the full interview on the following pages, and be sure to catch her at SXSW this upcoming week.
