Kenya Grace Drops Off Debut EP, 'The After Taste'

**Rising phenom Kenya Grace set for stun and stirred emotions with her debut EP, The After Taste, featuring smash hit “Strangers.”**

The rise of Kenya Grace has been remarkable to witness over the past year. Originally from South Africa but currently residing in the UK, this self-taught artist had already begun to carve out space for herself in 2022 with vocal features and a handful of solo tunes that helped display her personal, relatable lyrics and dancefloor-ready nature. In 2023, Kenya Grace struck gold with “Strangers,” a track that exploded in popularity via TikTok and Instagram, catapulting her into the hearts of millions worldwide.

The success of “Strangers” alone was huge for Kenya Grace as the track helped push the softer side of drum and bass to the masses. It has since been streamed nearly a billion times while sitting atop multiple Billboard charts. That wasn’t all she had in store for her swelling fanbase, though, as the blossoming artist has now dropped off her debut EP, The After Taste.

Out now via Major Recordings/Warner Records, The After Taste expands on the sultry yet dance-forward soundscapes Kenya Grace has become renowned for. The intro injects a touch of drum and bass energy into the mix before jumping straight into the aforementioned “Strangers.” Her latest single, “It’s not fair,” turns the dial down a notch as she puts her vocal prowess front and center on the otherwise stripped-back track, with other tracks like “Stay” and “Someone Else” carrying that theme.

True to its name, “My Baby Loves to Dance” helps kick up some energy for dancefloors with its subtle, shuffle-inducing beat. “Hey, Hi, How are you?” sees Kenya Grace pair her emotion-fueled lyricism with a breakbeat to create an intoxicating soundscape perfect for those late-night drives through the city when it’s raining outside. And you’ll find yourself bopping your head along to “Only In My Mind,” while its lyrics will find a way to stick in your mind well after its runtime.

This captivating body of work from Kenya Grace is stunning and makes it crystal clear the future is bright for this rising star in the scene. Listen to The After Taste on Spotify or your preferred platform, and catch her live on her upcoming tour stops, including her debut at Coachella!
