Teaming up with Grammy-winning Mark Nilan Jr (Tate McRae, Jimin of BTS, Lady Gaga), Mozella (Miley Cyrus, Madonna, Rihanna), and Jesse Siebenberg (Supertramp, Kesha), “whole heart black” signifies a new era for Kate. Drawing inspiration from the alternative sounds of the late ‘90s and early 2000s, the song delves into the conflict of craving admiration and love from someone you don’t want to be with.
“I wanted to release whole heart black because I wanted a change, when you’re just starting out as an artist it’s super important to experiment and find your identity. whole heart black felt like such a strong yet unique pocket for me to play in. Making the song allowed a new part of me to come to the surface and I’m incredibly grateful for that. I view whole heart black as the beginning of a new era.”
