Saaaame. Genius writing, production, and harmonies! They've inspired me in my own artistry with their "future-soul" sound soooo much. Life changing...✨️🙌🏾😭💛
"The ride is rocky and the road is long, but I know that my soul is never gonna steer me wrong. Gonna master the art, following my heart..." The entire song is sheer bliss, but this line always touches my spirit in a special way. Thank you for creating such beautiful music, I am anxiously awaiting the full release next spring!
When I hear King, I experience a huge release of Seratonin in my brain because(and not to sound like a super cornball, which I probably am anyway) it feels like I'm high on something, not joking, its like I feel immediate euphoria. I remember getting this same feeling when I was 11 and my father would play music by this group called "The Fifth Dimension" and this other group called "Brazil 66". I didn't understand at that age why that music made me feel that way but I just knew that I was starting to become drawn into this whole other world that I could get literally lost in for hours at a time, oblivious to everything around me at the time. Once my parents noticed this, they started to cultivate my musical palate by coming home once every 2 weeks(Payday) with vinyl records for me listen to. At that point they realized that all they had to do was bring home some music and I literally would stay in my room for hours and days at a time listening to that music and they wouldn't have to worry about my whereabouts. Now as an adult I understand their EVIL, CUNNING GENIUS! lol!
Personally, one of the best songs ever written. In a relatively short time, this is one of my favorite all time songs. And i listen to EVERYTHING from hard rock, to industrial, to classical. Well done King, beautiful song.
Would love to collaborate with you ladies ! Lets link up serious !, I am a composer , and singer songwriter , could we chat , and see if we could make something happen , pass the blessing in like Prince did ! One ❤️ coreyhorton2012@gmail.com Just to invite you to my Dropbox to listen Really think this would be something great new and refreshing .
I've not yet pinned down every single thing but I've been studying King's multi-layered harmony for about a year now and one of subtle nuances that make their harmony sound so very different from other female groups is: If u listen very closely, Paris Strother, the twin who produces all of their tracks actually sings what I guess I would refer to as the female equivalent of male bass vocals on mostly all of their tracks, most females don't have the ability much less the desire to do this but Paris pulls this off without a hitch and it really adds a very unique roundness and fullness to King's sound. The only other female vocalist that I've heard actually do this on a recording is Lalah(The Vocal Gymnast) Hathaway. I'm sure Cassandra Wilson could do it as well but I've not heard a record with her doing it.
Interesting discovery you have here. There was something so unique and soulful I felt as I just discovered this song. It just takes you in. It's so lovely and smooth and their harmonies make you feel so good. Great song.
Tony Sizemore Hey! I love that analysis! But If I'm not mistaking, the lows or "female tenor" parts are all sung by Anita Bias (the one who isn't a twin)...lol. Amber Strother takes the highs/soprano lines. The unique blend on the harmony comes from the fact that in this particular song, Anita isnt doing a standard alto line. Her part isnt exactly paralleled to the top part and she dips in and out of that "tenor" to make the harmony hit differently...though, I'm pretty sure Paris is the genius behind what notes were chosen for this crazy, beautiful melody & harmony, being the group's producer 👌😎😊...her chords and arrangements are BANANAS 👐...been studying and enjoying these ladies since they first came out in 2011. #dopeness
+Jeremy Thomie - Ok Jeremy, I'll check into that because u very well could be right. Man I love their sound sooooooo much, it's incredibly unique, problem is it's probably too unique.
Tony Sizemore yesssss dude! I hate that many ppl wont even understand how complex and musical their sound is! 😣 The real "artsy" ones are always overlooked. So glad Prince saw how authentuc they were before he passed. He changed their lives 👐👐👐🙏 Im so grateful. lol
Congratulations on the Grammy nomination ladies!!! I feel so proud, been a fan since 2012, never looked at the music industry the same since...looking forward to what's next!!!
kinda scary how im still listening to this song on repeat consantly, im in love with the other songs on their EP too........ but, this one.......,this song has to be the most beautiful sound i have ever heard!
this is my favorite song on 2011...i can listen to this on repeat all day...my first purchase on itunes ever. ...GREAT MUSIC!!!!! Keep up the work ladies.
Oh, this song makes you feel like you aren't alone in your journey back to yourself. IT makes you feel good about reconnecting to higher self. I'm not the only one doing, it makes it that much easier, and that much more necessary! Thank you KING for the encouragement.
I LOVE this song!!!! I'm in an airport RIGHT NOW, in the middle of the night trying to learn the words lol. This song and their other 1 "supernatural" are awesome soul soothing songs. Imma learn that 1 too lol.
I can listen to this song 10x in a row, and it gives me chills EVERY... SINGLE... TIME! I never get tired of it. What a tremendous gift you ladies are sharing.
Ive been an avid soul collector simce i was 17 yrs old im now 28 and i covered almost everyone,but im just now getting hip to these ladies,and i swear they have changed my life!! #Salut #King #Cle,Ohio
My friend Ashton put me on you guys and when I heard this song and Supernatural I told her that the young lady who produced this is classically trained in music and probably went to a prestigious music school. Lo and behold on your site it says Paris attended Berkley for music and was an accomplished musician and composer. When I found Paris's website I couldn't stop beaming from the wonderful music you ladies have made. Two of the 5 songs were deleted though =(. God Bless u beautiful ladies.
This is an amazing song and video, it goes deep, the music itself is just like the visual, a scrapbook of different emotions and has that real DIY feel, yet it's full of detail and love.
The last few seconds of this song... The last 8 bars from 3:44 on out... Just... No words for it. I think everyone can relate to this record. We all wanna go places and we all have a story to tell... But the road WILL by rocky and long. Wheeeeeeew!! This song is just.... One of the greatest songs EVER recorded.
Came here because of Eric Roberson on Twitter. I can't help but keep hitting repeat because this is truly a breath of fresh air! Absolutely amazing. This is fresh music from a different lens and sound! I fucking love this shit! keep up the work!
The dopest sound by far I've heard in a long time. abSOULutely amazing. i love it! I work at the lenox lounge and this is all i listen to. Loving how yall switching the chords. Aint nobody doing it like yall right now. Yall setting the trend for the new neo Soul sound wave! PEACE & BLESSINGS my black sistahs. KEEP RIDING TILL YALL REACH THE MOTHER SHIP!!!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love these ladies, they are so my flavor and style. So much to the point that my friend heard them and said they reminded her of me. They inspire me to do what I do best, sing and write. I hope one day soon I can work with them on many levels. I'm happy that someone in our generation has brought back REAL music. SO ELATED AND REFRESHED I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO...
i was reading Eric Roberson's blog today .. he had a interesting story about how he came about to hear these young ladies.. thanks erro..these young ladies are DOPE..
![Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra) [Official Music Video]](/img/1.gif)

Saaaame. Genius writing, production, and harmonies! They've inspired me in my own artistry with their "future-soul" sound soooo much. Life changing...✨️🙌🏾😭💛
Chord changes like that... Will bring tears to a grown man's eyes.
"The ride is rocky and the road is long, but I know that my soul is never gonna steer me wrong. Gonna master the art, following my heart..."
The entire song is sheer bliss, but this line always touches my spirit in a special way. Thank you for creating such beautiful music, I am anxiously awaiting the full release next spring!

There is something so therapeutic about their music.
This song speaks to my SOUL.
I feel you!!...no more being the norm..
feel it in my soul too, I really feel that shit. love all the key changes so sweetly shifting. a real multi-dimensional music.
