Their full-length debut is out this Friday (they released their first EP in 2011). They've received attention from numerous outlets such as NPR, Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, and Billboard. Current single is "The Greatest". One of my favorite tracks out at the moment. People who enjoy alternative or electronic R&B and quiet storm/Sade-inspired R&B will enjoy this.

Anita decided to left and KING will continue as a duo.
A new remix of "Red Eye" released a while ago. It's really nice.

Also, I just realized they've changed their group name to We Are KING instead of simply KING.

Oh. I remember seeing them for free in Central Park but I never really listened to their music and forgot about them.
