Video: 06.12.21Describing herself an an Afro-European mineral, independent artist K.ZIA is recognisable for her mix of French and English and her fusing of cultures and genres like R&B, soul, Pop, trap and Afrobeats like on her latest single ‘I Got Your Back’. The track is taken from her upcoming debut album ‘Genesis’, set for release on 11th February 2022 – she just dropped a stunning new music video to go with ‘I Got Your Back’.
Born of a Martinican father and a Belgo-Congolese mother (afro-pop singer Zap Mama) K.ZIA has supported artists like Sampa The Great, Omar Lyefook, Tayla Parx, Kota the friend and more.
On the new track she says, “I Got Your Back is a song close to my heart. Dedicated to one of my closest and longest friends. It’s a song of comfort for the ones among us who suffer from depression. Life can feel so lonely at times, depression is a subject we don’t often talk about but touches so many. It’s ok to need some time off, it’s okay to feel a certain way. The last 2 years have been heavy on a lot of us and this song is a warm hug from a distance to make sure you know that whatever happens, I got you.”
