Underground R&B Visionary keiyaA Unveils Her Final Single ‘k.i.s.s.’

Leading into the Friday release of her highly anticipated sophomore album hooke’s law, Chicago-born, NYC-based singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer keiyaA unveils the album’s final preview — the yearning new single and video ‘k.i.s.s.’ The third chapter in keiyaA’s ongoing collaboration with co-director Caity Arthur, the ‘k.i.s.s.’ video places her at the center of a sudsy, carwash fantasy encounter-where flirtation turns into choreography and reminiscence for late-’90s/early-’00s playful swagger of classic R&B videos while twisting nostalgia into something distinctly her own.

keiyaA makes music that excavates, discovers, and excavates again — all in pursuit of life’s most beautiful and daunting questions. A multidisciplinary artist whose work spans music, poetry, acting, choreography, and production, she continues her expansive world-building with hooke’s law, arriving on the heels of her first theatrical stage play, milk thot. The two works are deeply intertwined: milk thot stages a ritual of deconstruction and rebirth as keiyaA confronts her shadow self, while hooke’s law extends that process sonically, dismantling and reconstructing the ego on her own terms. Both projects blur the boundaries between performer and audience, self and story, dissolving any notion of linearity. Together, they form a continuum of radical self-interrogation and transformation — a kaleidoscopic expression of identity through sound, movement, and emotion.

hooke’s law is out this Friday, October 31st.
