After self-financing an EP and a music video, Dahlia was brought to the attention of veteran record executive Sylvia Rhone by A&R representative Amanda Berkowitz. In 2012, describing Dahlia as "more than just a pop artist," Rhone signed her to her newly-launched label, Vested In Culture (VIC), a joint venture with Epic Records. Dahlia's debut album is set to come out in 2013, and will be VIC's inaugural release.
Dahlia's first single and video for VIC is the track "Gangsta", which MTV called "filled to the brim with fierce rapping". Shot in Miami, the video for "Gangsta" reflects the difficulties of her earlier life. The video, which was directed by Samantha Lecca, premiered on Vevo on March 5, 2013, and Dahlia was selected as a BET "Music Matters" artist.
Dahlia digitally released three songs, "Gangsta", "Money Party", and "Mirror" on March 5, 2013.

Kat Dahlia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't tell if we're flying or swerving right off a cliff
If you got more offerings, you know you ain't gotta twist my wrist
Show me your dirtiest water, I'll bathe in it
But, just give me a sign
I'm what you like
Does this feel right?You and I
But, just give me a sign
I'm what you like
You and I, yeah
I may have a confession on my lips
And I can't tell if you already know
But, if you wanna keep me company, maybe love me
I wouldn't mind that at all
And yeah, I got a problem in my hips
And I don't wanna solve it all alone
So, if you wanna keep me company, maybe love me
Give me your body and soul
