KID BE KID did it again! After her 2017 debut “Sold Out” and the “Lovely Genders” EP 2020, The Berlin Soul and Jazz singer with the distinctive timbre and human beat box skills fnally releases her second album “Truly A Live Goal But No Ice Cream” on the outernational label Fun In The Church.
In the KID BE KID superhero universe, the fact that she is not only a singer but also a virtuoso pianist goes without saying. So much talent in one person would hardly be bearable if KID BE KID wasn’t, above all, such a lovable funky freak! “Naked Times! No More Lies! Here I am strippin’ straight in front of your eyes,” she chants in a futuristic dress with a gigantic shoulder width, and in the video clip she skillfully oscillates between the authenticity of her live performance and the complete unreality of the production.
