Listen to “Cry Cry Cry” by King Princess
I haven’t explored King Princess’s music much on the blog. However, her recent journey after leaving the major label system is too compelling to ignore. She has gained a great deal of freedom as a singer-songwriter-producer, and I wondered what new music would result from that. The answers unfolded in her latest releases, “Cry Cry Cry” and its powerful predecessor, “RIP KP.” In these tracks, King Princess seizes the reins with a boldness that radiates throughout the album, showcasing a remarkable blend of renewed spirit and determination. This is the music she was destined to create, and we are assured it’s a thrilling chapter in her artistic evolution.
Above all, Mikaela Straus, known widely as King Princess, is fearlessly asserting her identity and musical vision, and the world is about to take notice. Yet, especially those who have ever tried to diminish her presence. This highly anticipated single serves as a powerful prelude to her third studio album, “Girl Violence,” which showcases her evolution as an artist and storyteller. Set to be released on September 12th, this marks her first collaboration with the label Section1. Moreover, promising a fresh sound that reflects her unique experiences and struggles. With “Girl Violence,” KP is not just making music; she’s creating a bold declaration of empowerment and resilience that will resonate deeply with listeners around the globe.
“Cry Cry Cry” is about a friendship with a lady that did not work out,” explains Straus. “Sometimes two divas create an explosion.”
Mikaela voices her feelings with piercing clarity. She croons, “I tried to be kind, But It pulled your trigger. And you’re pissed but I’m feeling fine. And I’m always gonna be too tough for you. You’re always gonna make things hard“. Her confidence is palpable.
King Princess undeniably commands the contemporary music scene by fearlessly pushing the boundaries of pop. With a distinct and authentic voice, she weaves captivating yet unsettling narratives that grab the listener’s attention. Her raw, incisive lyricism dives deep into personal experiences, tackling themes of love, identity, and societal expectations with unflinching honesty. This unwavering commitment to revealing the truth not only resonates powerfully with audiences but also challenges the status quo, establishing her as a commanding presence in modern music.
King Princess will take “Girl Violence” on the road for a proper tour later this year. She will tour throughout the UK and Europe in December. Full dates listed below, and tickets are on sale HERE
