Our Take

Carole King's latest album, "Young Kingin", is a delightful mix of nostalgic tunes and fresh sounds that will have you grooving in no time. King, known for her legendary songwriting skills, showcases her talent once again with this collection of tracks that range from heartfelt ballads to upbeat anthems. The album opens with "Forever Young", a bouncy pop song that sets the tone for what's to come. King's voice is as powerful as ever, effortlessly gliding over the catchy melodies and infectious beats. It's the kind of song that will have you tapping your toes and singing along in no time. As the album progresses, King delves into more personal themes, with tracks like "Growing Pains" and "Queen of Hearts" offering a glimpse into her inner world. The raw emotion in her voice is palpable, drawing the listener in and making them feel every word she sings. But it's not all introspection and heartache on "Young Kingin". King also knows how to have fun, as evidenced by the funky grooves of "Dancin' in the Moonlight" and the infectious energy of "Party All Night". These tracks will have you up on your feet and moving to the beat in no time. Overall, "Young Kingin" is a triumph for Carole King, showcasing her versatility and talent as a musician. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to her music, this album is sure to delight and entertain. Long live the Queen of Song!

About the artist

Carole King

Carole King, the reigning queen of 70s pop-folk, has a story as classic as the tunes she penned. Hailing from the bustling boroughs of Brooklyn, she cut her teeth in the music biz as a teenage prodigy, churning out hits for the likes of The Shirelles and The Drifters. But it wasn't until her solo debut, "Tapestry," that she truly found her voice - and what a voice it was. With her honeyed vocals and heart-on-sleeve songwriting, King blazed a trail through the FM airwaves, capturing the hearts of a generation with anthems like "It's Too Late" and "You've Got a Friend." And let's not forget her iconic piano playing - a virtuoso mix of jazz, blues, and good old-fashioned rock 'n' roll. But it's not just King's music that's left a lasting impact. Her pioneering spirit and unwavering dedication to her craft have inspired countless artists to follow in her footsteps. From Taylor Swift to Adele, her influence can be heard in the voices of today's top hitmakers. So, if you're looking for a timeless sound that's equal parts soulful and sophisticated, look no further than Carole King. With a career spanning six decades and counting, she's more than just a singer-songwriter - she's a musical force to be reckoned with. Long live the queen.
