Born under the sign of Aries, in Lusaka, Zambia, she confined at a young age to her Danish father that one day she would become a musician. Living back and forth between 2 continents, she mainly grew up in Tanzania up until 1989. At the age of 15 she moved to Denmark alone, to get an education. By the beginning of the 1990s Karen Mukupa represented one half of the Danish highly respected hip-hop / reggae phenomenon "No Name Requested". The duo consisted of the late reggae queen of Denmark, Natasja, and Mukupa herself and they are till this day still remembered as a phenomenon that revolutionized Danish hip hop and reggae.
ìNo Name requestedî never achieved releasing a whole album but 2 singles found its way to the Danish Hip-hop underground scene with success. Later in 2000 she released her first solo album ìMukupaís Lawî and again in 2002 released her second album ì2nd baseî

Sheís back, many seasons later with her new album ìDreamerî. The music on the new album is a unique mix of reggae, Afro, Latin, a hint of hip-hop, and last but not least RnB, which makes the expression very unique. "Dreamer" is produced by several producers; Tom J., boom clap bachelors and Food Palace Music consisting of Freshi, Rasmus Allin (also Junkyard Production) and chief producer Pharfar. This collaboration has created a red thread, all through the diverse songs on the album and sheís now more than ready to rock it!!
Karen has preformed live and on album with Kid Creole on her version of ìAnnie Iím not your daddyî. She has supported acts like Queen Latina, A Tribe Called Quest, KRS-one, Black moon, Mad professor, Massive Attack and Destinyís Child
