Kelsie Kimberlin - Lady Liberty
Kelsie Kimberlin has experimented in her latest track, "Lady Liberty" which really shows in every note. The track leans more into symphonic textures and sounds full. The layered synths in the track really give it a cool, cinematic feel. While I was listening to the song, I could almost picture it to be the soundtrack of a political thriller film. The mood of the song is tense and dark and really reflects the current political atmosphere especially that of America. It's her way of making her stance known, almost as if she is making a statement against the injustices happening in the country. However, it comes very naturally to her. Which is what I really liked about the track. The lyrics are very straightforward and make you empathize with the situation. She is very confident in her vocals too. I think this is the boldest song that she has made in recent years. And to be honest, we really need more art like this to come out now more than ever. The music video also reflects this sentiment by large. It is intense, dark and makes you feel something. Like they say, art is supposed to cause discomfort to the privileged. Kimberlin seeks to do just that through this new song. It aims to spark conversation and I think it's doing it just right. The song would fit perfectly into a political movie like Civil War. Given how cinematic it already is, it would make a perfect soundtrack to that movie. The song is a very refreshing stance from Kimberlin. She is experimenting with new sounds which adds to her artistry and makes her come off as not just a musician but one who actually wants to spread a message through her music.
