We were lucky to catch up with Kanailah Walker recently and have shared our conversation below.
Kanailah , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. When did you first know you wanted to pursue a creative/artistic path professionally?
Ok so growing up I’ve ALWAYS been a shy person and when I say shy im talking about VERY shy . I don’t want to be in front of a big crowd basically didn’t want anybody to see me because that would draw attention now im in my shy mode 😂 . But as I grew older I felt like being shy was childish tbh I felt like I should be able to stand in front of a million people if I wanted to and I know I’d be nervous but shy naaaah . I watched Youtube everyday when I had free time I was on YouTube 24/7 I said to myself “ I can do that “ my self said “ nah you too shy people gone be watching you “ so I said “ ok I’m not gone do it “ one day I just said forget I’m ABOUT TO DO THIS & I DID IT !! I made my first YouTube video and I got 4.5k views I was sooooo happy that just made me want to go harder !!! I started Networking I collabed on.a video with a famous YouTuber and after that my shyness went away and I went after every opportunity it was now I’m pursuing Tiktok,Youtube,Social Media & Acting
Kanailah , love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
Hey my name is Kanailah, I am 21 years old . I come from one of the poorest cities in Ga but I don’t let that define me . For me getting into social media ,content creating etc you have to put yourself out there for people to see you . I feel like I’m different from others on soo many levels but mainly I feel as if I didn’t let anything stop me from going after something I want . I provide great content for my supporters on TikTok, Facebook&Youtube . The thing that I’m most proud of myself is I didn’t stop when it got hard I cried and kept going with tears running down my face because Ik I’m destined for greatness. I want all my supporters to know “ IF YOU WANT SOMETHING I DOSENT MATTER WHAT IT IS GO AFTER IT DONT LET ANYBODY STOP YOU !!!!”
We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?
I built my audience by first knowing my niche (what kind of videos I’m going to provide to my audience) and once I knew I say STAY CONSISTENT!! I stayed consistent I chose certain days to create content and post them all week . The audience will come just create the content everything else will fall in place .
Is there mission driving your creative journey?
You want to know what goal is driving me ? ME BECOMING A MILLIONAIRE & BEING ON THE BIG SCREEN & MAGAZINES I’ve already set my goals in my head & in my life so everyday I wake up and tell myself “THATS THE GOAL !! ALWAYS HAVE BEEN & WILL BE . “I make sure I go above and beyond for myself to get to the goal somedays it’s challenging but when i remind myself what the goal is then I’m back to grinding !!!
