‘SPILT MILK’ is a showcase of KiNG MALA’s artistic evolution, representing the culmination of two years of relentless writing, experimenting, and collecting moments. As she opens the vault to share her secrets, each track on the EP carries the weight of stories she’s held onto for so long. This EP is a personal journey laid bare for listeners to immerse themselves in spread across eight songs.

KiNG MALA’s so-called “Unbothered Soft Girl Era” doesn’t mean she’s cast vulnerability aside; quite the opposite. “SPILT MILK is a project full of songs I have loved for years now,” KiNG MALA says about the EP. “A culmination of two years of writing and experimenting and gathering all the things I’ve loved into one project. It’s the vault, it’s all the secrets I’ve kept for so long.”

KiNG MALA’s SPILT MILK is used as a cleansing of everything that has lingered within KiNG MALA’s artistic psyche over the years: fears (“bug”), crushes (“arms length”), disappointments (“dirty dishes”), rejection (“grocery store”), love, and the mundane aspects of life converge in this sonic journey. KiNG MALA invites listeners into her clean palace, as the EP resonates with vulnerability and unfiltered emotion, it’s evident that her work contributes to a sonic landscape that is as honest as it is exhilarating. “At the very end of the project, in the outro of the last song “grocery store,” there is a lyric… ‘they tell me don’t cry over spilt milk, but it’s seeping out my pores.’ And I feel like that sentiment encapsulates the feeling of this project,” KiNG MALA says.
