Today, Mark Ronson releases his debut full-length album Late Night Feelings, and it's packed with stellar female vocalists straddling all genres, from Camilla Cabello to Alicia Keys to Angel Olsen to our favorite star-on-the-rise, King Princess. During this past weekend at Bonnaroo, I had the chance to pick KP's brain about their collab,"Pieces of Us," ahead of its release.
King Princess, aka Mikaela Straus, knows exactly what it is that makes Ronson great. It's not necessarily his musical talent or his abilities as a super-producer, but rather his keen ear when it comes to uber-talented women. Straus says,"That's his zhuzh: just being there when smart women are talking." And Straus is, assuredly, one of those women.
Straus also explains that their creative relationship is perfectly tumultuous, a chaotic good that leads to the best possible product in the end."Whenever we work together the first day is always fighting and the next days are good," Straus says."Because there needs to be a big storm.
We're speaking on the eve of Father's Day, and Straus jokes,"I feel as though he and I have this weird father-daughter complex... I think he's just a magnificent man; such a goober." Even though they're not related, they certainly make beautiful music together.Today is Lana Del Rey's birthday; it's the Summer Solstice, the start of Cancer season , and the astrological Cusp of Magic. Quite a day, when you think about it.
