London-based MOBO grant recipient, Michelle O Faith just released her latest single “Kiss The Boys”. This marks the 5th track that our favourite Black Lolita has released throughout 2020 and 2021 (Speaking In Tongues, Bloomsbury Hotel, Eskimo Summer and of course Black Lolita) – in addition to her two part release: Lagoon and Lagoon II.
Kiss The Boys is a three minute, powerful and lyrically intricate offering with a clever and subversive take on iconic British nursery rhymes. O Faith’s inner baddie seduces on the refrain, “Been on my K I S S I NG, tell Georgie Porgie, fuck with me, yeah you crossed my heart, now you’re gonna die, yeah I’ll kiss them boys and I’ll make them cry.”
The production is super clean and stripped back, and Michelle is super present on the track which is refreshing and bold, fitting considering the lyrics.
