King had the opportunity to open for Prince at this year’s Essence Music Festival and NPR interviewed them and filmed their in-store performance of “Supernatural.” Three years ago they independently released The Story EP which caught the attention of Prince who invited them to meet him. Since meeting him they have been able to talk to him regularly about their music and receive career advice. The Story and an appearance on Robert Glasper’s Black Radio has built anticipation for their We Are King full-length album that will be released soon.
