KING: WE ARE KING


A Music Masterclass..


KING, A female R&B group gifted with a distinctive sound which engulfs its listeners with their soft, and sweet 3 part harmony. The artists Paris, Amber and Anita weave their voices together to form a true masterpiece.
The album’s flow, maintains a consistent vibe throughout which makes up for the 5 to almost 7 minute long tracks.



“The Right One” A true finger snapper and mood lifter allows you to be engulfed in the intricacy and complexity yet smoothness of the voices coupled with the percussion instruments and bass that blast through with the singers’ deep alto. “ Red Eye” a personal favorite in two words can be put as Ethereal Perfection. This track is a blend of sensual but innocent love between two adventurers. Closing your eyes and just envision an exotic woman summoning her man into the tropical forest to just explore. "Supernatural" the trios vocals are dominant over the instruments up until the 2 minute mark. If you were to listen to this song then listen to a live performance it would be difficult to distinguish the two. Their voices are truely remarkable.


If Ledisi, Jill Scott and Erykah Badu were to form a  group this would be it. “ Love Song” and “In the Meantime”, captures that essence and familiarness of those artists. In “Hey”, they inspire listeners to take a break from the outside world and just get in tune with themselves. Just vibe along with the music and be happy. Very uplifting and groovy ,“ The Greatest” Not really something that one will typically sing along to unless you had some serious vocals but nonetheless a great listen.
“Mister Chameleon” gives readers Erykah Badu "teas" as they metaphorical lyrics give listeners a taste of their creativeness.   They give excellent and almost identical live performances as there recorded. Truly talented group of women.

Every layer reveals itself with a lush and exotic feel which it almost irresistible for listeners.
