Kimberly Nain was born on the sixteenth of May, 1989. Ever since her
birth she was thought to become a great singer, a talent she would have
acquired from her father, Audley Nain who used to be a member of the
‘Jamaican Folk Singers’. Ever since her first note, Kimberly always
aimed at being the centre of attention when in a crowd. Back in her high
school years at ‘St. Jago High’ she gained experience in performing
both in music and drama. She took on numerous responsibilities, leading
the Journalism & Arts Society, acting as Assistant Public Relations
Officer of Key Club and taking part in the Volley Ball team. A very
active individual she was indeed but none of these experiences could top
her love for the ‘Santiago Singers’ choir led by principal, Keith Noel.
It was this part of her life that made her realize that music was her
true love. From there on, Kimberly continued to work on her vocals both
at home and at school; while washing the dishes and while singing
popular songs during break periods at school with classmates. Mr. Noel
pushed her as well as fellow school-mate Christopher Martin into
properly developing themselves musically and while maintaining their
grades. However, it wasn’t until after Chris Martin had won Rising Stars
that Kimberly got her big push into the music business by well known
producer of Goodthyme Entertainment, Seandue Lashley. It was then in
2008 that she wrote and recorded her first song “Angel” at Anchor Studio
by Delroy “Phatta” Pottinger. She has since continued her works in the
music business having recorded at several studios namely, Cashflow,
Grafton, LMR Productions, U.I.M. Production and currently works with
Izes Records.
“Honestly, I never knew that I could have even started doing music but
it happened and I’m extremely grateful for being given the opportunity
to do so. No doubt I’ll do my absolute best; doing everything I can to
satisfy my audience. My greatest influence I would have to say is my mom
and dad; even though mommy can’t sing to save her life she has given me
enough moral support and critique to perfect my work while daddy has
been my main source of advice in the music business. I do have other
family already involved in music like my cousins, Jermaine Edwards in
Gospel, Andrea Burgess in Reggae in the states, Jahmill Bernard a rapper
in London, God-brother Jordan ‘Illa J’ Batts (featured in my single
‘Spinning’) and my uncle Danny Tucker who plays the Saxophone in the
States. I have 120% support from my family and friends who I love to
death, God has blessed me with great people around me and with that in
mind there’s nothing that can hold me back!”
