Owing to the fact that he grew up in many different cultures (DRC, Nigeria, South Africa, Ethiopia and Wales specifically), his intonation and inflections have taken on many forms over the years. Most joke that Karabo is a melting pot of the English language and he has come to accept that about myself, which led him to thinking deeply about speech and communication in general. He has written extensively for brands all around the world – Nike Golf, CR7 Denim, EA Sports, FIFA, and Redbull to name a few - and has had the pleasure of voicing those words for different markets and populations with greatly contrasting tastes and preferences. This experience has given Karabo a unique versatility and thorough understanding of not only what people want to hear, but also of how what they want to hear changes over time, an understanding that he is able to put to exquisite use in the application of his voice. A versatile artist with a plethora of characters and impersonations, he is sure to satisfy the needs of any client.
