Karen Civil has been a name in Hip Hop music business for a while now and is someone who has had much experience particularly representing artists and brands.
Recently talking with The Source, Civil spoke on recent comparisons she has been fielding from magazines to Oprah Winfrey. She says she’s humbled by such mentions.
“I’m not gonna lie… those are hard shoes to fill,” Karen Civil said. “When you think Oprah you don’t think pretty, or vanity. You think Oprah. One woman who is powerful and who does it all. No boundaries. So, yes – it is humbling, and empowering, because I don’t want to be seen as a women or for my looks first. I want to be ‘She’s living her purpose and she’s getting it done.’ My works and passion for it is what you continue to see first.”
Now representing Nipsey Hussle, Civil also spoke about her client and also Pharrell’s ability to do crossover songs.

“Nipsey is def doing his thing especially with his most recent #Crenshaw $100 release,” she said when asked about Nipsey and artists who are able to blur the lines between musical genres. “Pharrell will also continue to be an incredible artist who can go from singing ‘Happy’ to then go sing ‘Move That Dope.’”
During the interview, Civil also spoke about Kanye West.
“See the thing about Kanye is…he goes off on the very things that has helped create his wive’s empire,” Civil says. “So it’s, ‘I don’t want any this or that,’ but then his music ends up in a commercial. We have come to terms that Kanye is Kanye…Passionate person that doesn’t fit the norm mold. Respect to him.”
Karen Civil is perhaps best known for her work with Young Money and her website KarenCivil.com.
