From the beginning, R&B trio KING seemed destined for success: The group’s debut EP, The Story, was released to immediate acclaim from the likes of ?uestlove, Foreign Exchange vocalist Phonte, and Prince. The group—comprised of Anita Bias, and Paris and Amber Strother—harkened back to a softer time in soul music, when there were clearer distinctions between it, pop, and hip-hop. KING’s long-awaited full-length continued where the EP left off, fusing R&B and dream-pop into a gorgeous, coherent stream. Originally slated to release in 2014, the LP arrived two years late. The delay didn’t dampen the music at all: classic art doesn’t have an expiration date.
