The Atlanta-based pop-rocker dropped a dazzling cover of Kesha‘s “Die Young,” the hit single from her 2012 album Warrior.

In a world that feels way too polished and pristine, I… Read more »

KING MALA kicks off 2025 with a vengeance, unveiling her darkly ominous new single, “GØD,” her first release since September. Injected with her signature sultry edge and defiant charisma, the “she calls me daddy” artist tangles herself in a web of introspection and existentialism musings. The track is a haunting cocktail of hypnotic beats, brooding melodies, and her smoky, commanding vocals that shift effortlessly between vulnerability and power. “This is a song about desire and its consequences from the perspective of the condescending deity you beg in your darkest hours,” KING MALA shares in a press release. “This is a… Read more »
