KIA, the emerging artist hailing from Los Angeles, is making a powerful statement with her latest release, “Okay, Alright.” With a unique blend of alternative R&B and neo-soul, KIA brings a fresh perspective to the music scene, drawing from her diverse background growing up in The Netherlands.
“Okay, Alright” serves as a standout track from KIA’s upcoming EP, Retrospect, diving into the depths of a past relationship and the journey of self-discovery that follows. The song reflects on the struggles of trying to salvage a relationship that was already doomed, as KIA confronts feelings of loss, anger, and ultimately, acceptance.
In crafting the song, KIA’s attention to detail is evident. From the subtle rain sounds recorded during LA downpours to the nostalgic video game effects, each element adds layers to the emotional narrative of the song. KIA’s vocals, accompanied by thoughtful sound effects, offer listeners an intimate glimpse into her introspective journey.
Beyond her solo endeavors, KIA’s music has found success on various platforms, including major streaming services and theaters across the globe. With accolades such as the NAMM President’s Innovation Award and wins at the Ultimate Music Awards, KIA’s talent has been recognized on a grand scale.
