She writes and produces most of her own music.
The stylistic range of left-field pop artist Kali Uchis is reflected in the variety of her collaborators -- an extensive genre-crossing list that includes Tyler, the Creator, Gorillaz, Daniel Caesar, Juanes, and BadBadNotGood. A singer, songwriter, and producer, as well as a video director, Uchis truly arrived on her own with the self-released Por Vida (2015), an EP that led to a deal with Virgin EMI. By the time Uchis released her lively debut full-length, the Top Five Billboard R&B/hip-hop hit Isolation (2018), she had already been nominated for Grammy awards through her featured appearances on Daniel Caesar's "Get You" and Juanes' "El Ratico."
Kali Uchis experienced the majority of her upbringing in Virginia and also spent time in her parents' native Colombia. As a teenager growing up in Alexandria, just south of Washington, D.C., she learned to play piano and saxophone and also developed a deep interest in visual arts. Her recorded debut was made in 2012 with the self-released mixtape Drunken Babble. Within three years, she had several singles to her credit, including "Know What I Want" and "Lottery," typically promoted with videos she directed, as well as collaborations with Snoop Dogg, GoldLink, Tyler, the Creator, and Major Lazer. Following the 2015 independent release of Por Vida, a free digital-download EP with tracks produced by Diplo, Kaytranada, and Tyler, Uchis started releasing her material through major-label Virgin EMI. A DJ Dahi-tweaked version of Por Vida's "Ridin Round," issued that November after a move to Los Angeles, was the artist's first single for the major label. "Only Girl," a relaxed Kaytranada production featuring Vince Staples and the Internet's Steve Lacy, followed in April 2016. She was also featured that year on Daniel Caesar's "Get You."
Throughout 2017, Uchis added to her discography of featured appearances via tracks by Juanes, Gorillaz, Tyler, Bootsy Collins, and Miguel, and she previewed her debut album with the singles "Tyrant" (featuring Jorja Smith) and "Nuestro Planeta" (featuring Reykon). By the end of the year, "Get You" had been nominated for a Grammy in the category of Best R&B Performance, and Juanes' "El Ratico" made Uchis a Latin Grammy nominee when it was up for Record of the Year. January 2018 saw the release of the BadBadNotGood-produced single "After the Storm" (featuring Tyler and Bootsy). Uchis released her debut album, Isolation, three months later. It debuted at number 32 on the Billboard 200 and entered the R&B/hip-hop chart at number four.

Your Teeth in My Neck
by Kali Uchis
Gone before sunrise, never sleep on the game
We're all shakin' the dice, now if you roll 'em hard enough could change your life
Found on a roll on my own I came to fight, I came to fight
What do I do it for?
I've been working so hard just to give you more
Gotta get right
What do you do it for?
When the rest of the world is falling through the floor
You gotta get right
'Cause you know better
You know, you know
You know better
You know, you know
You know better
You know, you know
It's your teeth in my neck
Your teeth in my neck
Some people worship diamonds and pearls
Silver and gold
Just to hold it
They'd give anything in the world
Kill us all off
They'd take our worth, they pay us dirt
Is it worth it? Is it worth it?
What do I do it for?
I've been working so hard just to give you more
Gotta get right
What do you do it for?
Rich man keeps getting richer, takin' from the poor
You gotta get right
'Cause you know better
You know, you know
You know better
You know, you know
You know better
You know, you know
It's your teeth in my neck
Your teeth in my neck
Don't you wanna get to know you, baby take it slower slower
Whoa baby take it slow
'Cause you know better
You know, you know
You know better
You know, you know
You know better
You know, you know
It's your teeth in my neck
Your teeth in my neck
