KIRBY - Coconut Oil (Single)

Acclaimed American singer and songwriter KIRBY today shares a new single, “Coconut Oil”, a fresh taster from her forthcoming EP Sis, He Wasn't the One”.

The electrifying “Coconut Oil” is a funk infused shot to the veins, an empowering and joyous celebration of black womanhood, with KIRBY’s vocals gliding across the elastic bass line and muscular groove. Breathtaking and exhilarating in equal measure, it is an utterly addictive future-soul classic.

KIRBY delves into the meaning behind the song: “If black girl magic needed a national anthem I would want it to be 'Coconut Oil'. When black women put this song on I want them to feel like I’m their own personal hype woman! Every lyric is an extension of 'YASSSS SISS' energy. These aren’t just lyrics to me, these are affirmations! Celebrating what it means to be black and a woman."
