 Arika has been fascinated by music since she can remember. Arika grew up in Connecticut in a close-knit musical family. Both of her parents are musicians and her father is an ac-complished songwriter. At the age of ten, Arika confidently picked up a microphone and, since then, has yet to put it down. "Music is my only true way of expression," says Arika Kane. "I am willing to share all of myself through my music. There is absolutely nothing that I would not write about because my experiences are what led me to where I am today."
The album, ARIKA KANE, is already garnering praise. Hip Hop Weekly wrote "Arika's debut album delivers a complete composition that will really resonate with true music fans." CD Baby named Arika Kane as one of the "hottest new up-and-coming artists to hit the music scene."
From the soulful Never Really Knew U to the playful Ring My Bell to the sorrowful Why Did We Fall N Luv, the songs are a portal straight to Arika’s thoughts and emotions. Also featured on the album is a soulful rendition of the Bobby Brown classic, Rock Witcha.
Last November, Arika was honored to be a part of the "One World Tour" with R&B legends Maze, Frankie Beverly, Baby-face and Charlie Wilson in Southaven, Mississippi. Another highlight of her career has been performing at the famous Sugar Bar owned and operated by the legendary Ashford & Simpson. Currently, Arika is preparing to embark on her first major promotional tour.
"I am so excited for the world to hear my album. Every song has its own identity and place, yet they are all equally amaz-ing," says Arika. "My goal in all my music is to make people feel good. I really believe that we do not embrace the really good things in life as much as we should and through my mu-sic I hope to contribute to that."
The spotlight is on Arika Kane and, with her drive, confidence and focus, she is determined to Make It!

Hi folks!
I couldn't help but write this e-mail - I am sitting here with a HUGE smile on my face as I recall the amazingly wonderful time shared with you this week!
I pray you got home safely and are catching up on what I am sure is some MUCH needed rest! I just wanted to thank you again for thinking of us and sharing this very precious time in Arika's career. We are blessed to be considered family!
I must tell you that I have gotten positive feedback from those who were invited to share in this event - folks are still commenting on how perfect the day was and how much they enjoyed taking part! Some listeners have also gone to you tube to view her video!
The winners were particularly impressed with Arika's easy, 'approachable & down-to earth' nature and how wonderful and loving your entire team is! (Of course I already knew that :-)) I am praying that you keep stick together and keep your unit strong as you move forward - no matter what obstacles you may face you each have what it takes to get through it together! I was VERY proud of everyone involved!
I hope to talk to you soon - please keep me posted on what's going on with BSE and our Arika! Much love and many blessings!!!
-Taylor
