Rising Stars: Meet Kieran Roberts of Los Angeles

Today we’d like to introduce you to Kieran Roberts.

Hi Kieran, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
Sure! My journey into the entertainment and creative world has taken a few turns—but storytelling has always been at the heart of it.

I started out as a Billboard-charting R&B recording artist, performing across the country and internationally. Music gave me my first real platform to connect with people emotionally. After stepping away from the industry for a bit, I shifted gears and opened a juice bar—a venture that allowed me to explore wellness, entrepreneurship, and community building in a new way.

But over time, my passion for storytelling evolved beyond music and business. I stepped into acting and voiceover work, where I found a whole new way to use my voice and creativity.

More recently, I launched Voice Crafting—an on-demand program designed to help aspiring voice actors find and shape their unique voice. Around the same time, I founded Soul Plug Media, which allows me to create original content and collaborate on projects that blend creativity, culture, and purpose.

On social media, I began sharing the funny, raw, and relatable moments of family life—which organically grew into a supportive and engaged community. My series, “Diary of a Married Man,” resonates with audiences who appreciate seeing the imperfect beauty of marriage and parenthood. In fact, I’m currently working on my first book, based on that very series.

Today, I wear a few different hats—voiceover artist, content creator, actor, and now author—all rooted in authenticity, humor, and a desire to help others feel seen through storytelling.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It definitely hasn’t been a smooth road. After stepping away from music, I went through a period of uncertainty—figuring out who I was outside of that world. Opening a juice bar brought a whole new set of challenges, from running a business to wearing every hat.

Transitioning into acting and voiceover meant starting over in a competitive space, facing rejection, and learning to stay focused through the ups and downs. Balancing creative work with family life hasn’t always been easy, but those challenges have shaped my perspective and made my storytelling more real.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I’m a voiceover artist, actor, content creator, and founder of Voice Crafting, where I help aspiring voice actors find their voice and build confidence behind the mic. I’m also the creator of Soul Plug Media, a space for producing original content and storytelling that reflects real life, culture, and connection.

On social media, I’m known for “Diary of a Married Man,” a series that mixes humor, honesty, and the everyday realities of marriage and fatherhood. I’m most proud of how that content has resonated with people—it started as just me sharing my life, and it’s grown into something that makes others feel seen.

What sets me apart is authenticity. I’m not trying to present a perfect version of anything—I’m showing up with real stories, real emotion, and a voice that reflects where I’ve been and who I am. Whether I’m behind the mic, on screen, or writing a book, I’m always telling a story that’s rooted in truth.

Do you have any advice for those looking to network or find a mentor?
My dad has always been the ultimate businessman and entrepreneur—straight-up the supreme, no-nonsense, get-it-done type. Watching him work growing up taught me so much about hustle, discipline, and how to carry yourself in any room. He’s been my biggest mentor, not just in business, but in life.

That said, I’ve learned that mentorship doesn’t always come from one person or one place. It’s not about finding someone who has all the answers—it’s about connecting with people who push you to grow and keep it real with you. Some of the best mentors I’ve had came from natural relationships over time—through work, collaboration, or just mutual respect.

As far as networking goes, being intentional is key. I don’t approach people just to see what I can get out of it—I try to show up with value, be authentic, and build a real connection. When you lead with that kind of energy, the right people tend to stick around.
