But with each new release, kimaRA keeps carving out a lane that feels uniquely, refreshingly its own, and their latest single, "Things We Like," is no different. Linking up with talented artist Cas, kimaRA embarked on creating a Summer Anthem, and what they have brought us is nothing short of a heat-filled track to dance to, connect with, and live it up. With "Things We Like," kimaRA isn't simply serving up a summer anthem; they're providing a window into the breadth of artistry they've been honing over the past year.
The production has a soulful sunniness that sounds as fitting beside the pool as it does on a top-down road trip, the kind of late-night dance floor heat that hangs in the air even after dark has fallen. KimaRA's sincere vocals stand out effectively, hovering between silky precision and a hint of playfulness that makes it impossible not to remember the song. Cas's verse throws in something of a proverbial wrench, helpfully adding an X-factor and an element of surprise, which attests to the track's throbbing, energy-fermenting back-and-forth, which does double time to brighten the shine already cast by artists who get the assignment, which is to capture joy in its most valid form.
But what sets this song apart is not just its unbeatable groove, but also that this song feels like an open invitation. The experience of hearing "Things We Like" is like stepping into a circle of friends laughing, dancing, and savoring life's sweetest moments. That's where the magic of kimaRA's artistry lies: the power to take connection and play it into sound, the power to create music that seems both profoundly personal and universally felt. If this track is any indication, it's not enough to dive into their whole catalog, but it's necessary.
