At first glance Karina Pasian may appear as a rookie songstress, but this 17-year-old surpasses her high school years with her powerhouse vocals and poetically empowering lyrics. The Dominicana has been creeping into the spotlight with her debut album "First Love," but we are fueling the Karina fever even more by featuring her as this month's Descubre and Download artist. We had a chance to kick-back with the New York City native about her real first love and behind-the-scenes chisme right under the hood!

MTV Tr3s loves givin' newcomers a break, so when we found out about up-and-coming pop singer/pianist Karina Pasian, we jumped all over her. Her video titled "Can't Find the Words" premiered today, but the seventeen-year-old Dominicana is no rookie to the game. She's appeared on (and won!) Star Search (holy flashback) and even performed at the White House(!) long before getting signed to Def Jam.
The New York native has worked with the likes of The Dream, Tricky Stewart, Gordon Chambers, Chris Brown, Carlos McKinney and Lil Mama. We love her sound and her positive messages, so we're sure that she's headed for stardom (plus having Quincy Jones as a godfather can't hurt either). Check out the video aquí and let us know what you think!
Love the video? Stay tuned to MTV Tr3s over the next few weeks to find out more about Karina!
