BRIANA LATRISE KAMARA

“Unapologetic storytelling. Unfiltered healing. Unstoppable creation.”

Briana Latrise Kamara is far more than a face you’ve seen on television. For seven years, she appeared on WE tv’s Growing Up Hip Hop… but as with most reality television, the editing room often told a story that was more sensational than sincere. What the cameras missed, and what Briana has always carried, is the heart of an artist, the mind of a builder, and the spirit of a healer.

Behind the headlines and soundbites is a woman who is deeply knowledgeable, wildly talented, and endlessly curious. Briana is a writer, perfumer, herbalist, entrepreneur, mother, and creative executive who has spent years weaving together her passions into brands that both inspire and serve her community.

Her work began in sound engineering and design, but it has since blossomed into multiple ventures that reflect her dedication to storytelling, cultural heritage, and wellness. She is the founder of House of BLK, a fragrance and incense brand rooted in ancestry and sensory experience; Voiced by BLK, where she brings words to life through narration, voiceover, and copywriting; and BLK Botánica Farms, her vision for a farm-to-table wellness operation that marries Afrocentric tradition with modern sustainability. Each endeavor is not just a business, it is a reflection of her mission: to create unapologetically and to heal through creation.

But beyond the titles and brands, Briana is a mother and a nurturer. Her artistry is not just in the products she creates or the words she writes, but in the way she pours love and intention into everything she touches, whether that’s crafting an incense blend, guiding a student through herbalism basics, or simply raising her children with compassion and wisdom.

What drives her is more than profit or recognition. It is legacy. It is community. It is the unshakable belief that art, wellness, and culture are tools for transformation.

Briana is passionate about storytelling in all its forms: through the written word, through fragrance, through digital products, and through teaching. She is equally passionate about wellness and food, creating spaces where people can reconnect to nature, heal themselves, and feel seen. Above all, she is passionate about truth, refusing to be defined by the limitations of a television script and instead choosing to write her own narrative on her own terms.

She is, above all, a builder. A builder of stories. A builder of businesses. A builder of spaces where others can thrive.

“I’m not here to perform perfection. I’m here to live out loud, love deeply, create relentlessly.”
