Today we’d like to introduce you to Kayla Holland
Hi Kayla, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
During my childhood, I grew up singing in church and sung on a karaoke app called Smule. But I decided to take music into another level instead of just singing karaoke and freestyle collabs all the time. That was when I was introduced to this music app called BandLab. BandLab is where I first got started officially back in 2020. I had been dealing with a lot of challenges with insecurities, music struggles, and my real life. When I first joined Bandlab, I was so different from everyone on that app. Eventually, I ended up growing out of nowhere. People started to really listen to me and love hearing my songs where I would always share my stories. It had really encouraged me to create more, collab with great artists, and distribute my music on all platforms. Now as for today, I am currently going for mental help for my personal life which I’m taking step by step for myself. My music has grown so much over the years throughout my music journey. I am more confident when it comes to singing that has improved so much, I’m sharing my story to a lot of people who are going through the same thing as me with mental health. I am officially a verified artist on Bandlab now from all of that hard work I’ve been putting into my music. Now I’m exploring a new path of having my very own online Radio show on YouTube: RONI Music Radio. My show is still growing but I love it so much where I can be myself to everyone. What I can say is music is what always kept me at ease.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Honestly, it has been a rocky road lol I’ve been going through a lot mentally as an artist and as a person outside of that app. I’ve had a lot of insecurities again as an artist lol because I always said to myself, I’ll never get there, and no one would accept an artist who can’t vocally sing, or no one is gonna with someone like me. I’ve had a lot of jealousy along the way lol. People would use you to help them grow especially those who used to be your friends or but it’s never enough for anyone today, which it’s always hard to work professionally with artists all the time and too many boundaries would get crossed. My biggest struggle of all that is I’ve been dealing with learning disability and mental health problems for years which I’ve never really opened up about my personal life to anyone. I know it’s crazy lol because you would display yourself as a strong person, always wearing a mask to make everyone happy. But if you’re always portraying as two different people all the time, that can cause so much stress in yourself where you don’t know who you really are behind everything. I had to really learn and put myself first by removing myself of everything for a while to mentally heal.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I love to create music online on an app called Bandlab. I always love to sing and write my songs, even mix them which I am still learning lol. However, I am very proud of how much I have grown as an artist over 5 years of being artist on Bandlab which inspired me to share my music to the rest of the world outside of the app. I am very different lol I’m very old-fashioned even though I’m young because I grew up listening to old-school music like the 80s and 90s music. I also love to write my music with poetry. I have a learning disability growing up. Poetry is the only thing I understand and know when it comes writing because I’m using nature and life as ways to decide how I feel into my music.
What has been the most important lesson you’ve learned along your journey?
The most important lesson I’ve learned along my journey is to always put yourself first.
