Praise for ‘The King’:
“Beautiful.” – ‘Father’ Single (29 June ‘23) – Clash
“A beautifully layered vocal introduction whips up into an excoriating hurricane of anger.” – SNACK Magazine
“If Giver Taker was an album of prayers, The King is an album of curses.” In his second album, Anjimile continues exploring what it means to be a Black trans person in America. Drawing from influences ranging from religion, Phillip Glass, and lived experiences, the album marks a step forward for Anjimile. – The Line Of Best Fit
“A bold, spiralling slice of soulful noise, offering pop at its most abstract yet still tethered to sumptuous melody… an extraordinary return.” – Clash
“The inventive nature of Anjimile is really fascinating … and this is another level.” – NPR Music
“There’s always been power afforded by watching and waiting: Now, on ‘The King,’ Anjimile finally steps to the throne and speaks.” – Pitchfork
“A dramatic, unsettling, yet grand track based around meticulously crafted choral arrangements, thumping percussion, and a striking riff that sounds like an uncanny harpsichord.” – Rolling Stone
“Progresses from a complex, wordless chorale into a keyboard arpeggio whirlwind.” – The New York Times
