Mila + BC Kingdom
Press Start EP
Self-Released
While her kid sister, Jhene Aiko, was busy blowing up the Internet with shopping metaphors, the artist formerly known as Mila J was digging into some dark places with progressive LA-based production/vocal duo BC Kingdom. Their collaborative six-song EP is a knockout, balancing Kingdom’s dark, downtempo arrangements with Mila’s breathy, expressive vocals. Her breathy delivery is a perfect foil for BC members Damon DeGraff and Jesse Coren’s moody, New Jack crooning, resulting in a collection that will hopefully turn as many heads as any booty-eating reference Ms. Aiko can conjure.
