Far-Side pt.1

The origin of the name Khary (KHA-ree) is of Swahili African descent roughly translating to “Kingly” or ”Son of the King”. Born first-generation American in Queens, NY, Khary Alexander is the son of two West Indian Caribbean immigrants from the island of Trinidad. Growing up in the boroughs of New York in the early '80s meant his young ears were no stranger to the cultural melting pot of sounds that permeated from street blocks. At any given moment, he could expect to be serenaded with sounds from classic era boom-bap hip-hop, salsa & merengue, and the ground rumbling sounds of his father’s bass guitar running through reggae and jazz standards. ‘Stuck Off The Realness’ is a nostalgic nod to his childhood upbringing and cultural background, melding influences from dub reggae, hip-hop, and jazz all in one package. Check the vocal chop and song title honoring the late Queensbridge legend, Prodigy of Mobb Deep from ‘Shook Ones, Pt. II’ and the flip from legendary jazz composer, Bob James from the cut ‘Caribbean Nights’. In a time where the country has made space for black voices to be heard, King Khary is the embrace of a new moniker honoring his namesake, culture, and vessel to tell his story.
