“[King Princess’] striking third album, “Girl Violence”—her best yet—which cements her status not only as a virtuosic provocateur but as a generational talent.” - The New Yorker
"Like the best of her past work, the resulting songs, including the raw kiss-off “Cry Cry Cry,” feel as heart-wrenching as they do anthemic." - The New York Times
"King Princess is back and better than ever." - Billboard
"a winsome ’80s pop pastiche, brimming with effervescent production flourishes and topped off with an ultra-catchy hook" - Stereogum
“At 26 years old, Straus is at her best yet just barely getting started…[a] one-of-one rock-star” - Paste
King Princess – the project of Brooklyn-based vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, producer and actor Mikaela Straus – releases her triumphant third record Girl Violence today.
Made in collaboration with Jake Portrait (Lil Yachty, Alex G, Unknown Mortal Orchestra), and Aire Atlantica (breakthrough: SZA’s “Low”), Girl Violence is the sound of Straus picking up the pieces after her world fell apart – fighting for freedom, stepping back from the limelight and major label system, breaking up, moving away, and returning to NYC where she was born and raised. Through it all, she somehow found the agency and creative spirit to fight the misconceptions and create the album she was destined to make, in a potent return to self. Perennially underestimated, she now wields the chip on her shoulder as a weapon, upping the ante and taking the reins on Girl Violence.
