Lady Kash and Krissy, also known in some instances as Kash n' Krissy, comprised a Singaporean Indian rap and vocal duo established in September 2008 by Kalaivani Nagaraj (Lady Kash) and Saradha Vidianand Das (Krissy). The partnership concluded in December 2012.

History

Kalaivani Nagaraj and Saradha Vidianand Das first connected as teenagers through a social networking platform in 2006.

Career

Kalaivani Nagaraj embarked on her journey as a rapper under the name Lady Kash in 2007. The duo Lady Kash and Krissy was formed a year later, in September 2008, when she joined forces with Saradha Vidianand Das.

Their introduction to composer A. R. Rahman came through Indian vocalist Benny Dayal, which led to their collaboration on the track "Irumbile Oru Irudhaiyam" featured in the 2010 movie Enthiran. They were also responsible for crafting the English lyrics for this piece. Additionally, they took part in "Semmozhiyaana Thamizh Mozhiyaam", the official anthem for the World Classical Tamil Conference 2010. Alongside Shreya Ghoshal, they lent their voices to "Dochey", a composition by Rahman for the Telugu film Puli.

Awards

In March 2011, Lady Kash and Krissy appeared at the charity event Sangarsh held in Chennai. Later that year, they earned several nominations at the VIMA Music Awards 2011 and secured second place in the Best Music Video category for their philanthropic single "One".

Their performances included appearances at MediaCorp's Hello 2012 event in Singapore and the Kuala Lumpur International Indian Music Festival in Malaysia during December 2012. That same month marked their amicable separation to pursue solo endeavors.

They were honored with the VIMA 2013 award recognizing them as Social Media Champions of Southeast Asia.

In 2014, Lady Kash and Krissy briefly reunited to perform "Wanna Mash Up" for the soundtrack of the Hindi film Highway.
