iamkyami Releases New Song “Stars”

The song is the first single off of her upcoming second EP, which is due to arrive Spring 2022 via Heist or Hit.
It was written and produced by iamkyami.
iamkyami said of the song, “The song is essentially about society, and how we treat others because of exterior variables that affect what boxes other people put us in. Variables such as socioeconomic status, race, and sexuality, when in reality, we’re all just humans that need to be treated with love and respect. Stars is about having enough of peoples’ negativity towards each other but still taking that negative narrative and flipping it into a positive one. We’re only human and so minuscule in the big picture of the universe...there’s no reason to be mean and nasty to others.”- iamkyami is raised in New York. Then she moved to Liverpool and now Manchester to further her music career.
She debuted with “Concrete Rose” in 2019. She released her debut EP “Life of Ky” in 2020.
She is your slick-talking, perceptive narrator exploring notions of identity, uniqueness and self.
She said, “My heritage is one where two worlds collide and that’s something really special. Being half Japanese and half Black American, there are so many influences to pull from and my aesthetic is heavily based on my identity. Not only my ethnic identity but my identity as a Queer person too. My music is simply another way to express myself and the ways in which I view the world.” - source : Apple Music
