King Princess Talks RIP KP, 1950, Lesbian Drama, and New Album 'Girl Violence'

Strap in because a conversation with King Princess is an unstoppable stream of top-notch banter, whipsmart quips, real talk, and tea. Brooklyn-born Mikaela Strauss joins on the couch for the first time to discuss her third album, Girl Violence, her hookiest, most vulnerable record to date. Since dropping ‘1950’ back in 2018 when she was still a teenager (it became a viral sensation; Harry Styles tweeted about it), the singer/producer/multi-instrumentalist has upped the ante with every release.

With Girl Violence the 26-year-old holds a magnifying glass to drama, heartbreak, and “emotional warfare” of lesbian relationships. We take a deep dive into her theories and the stories behind her songs, plus her fantastical queer dress-up party Bazongas (you’re invited), the fetishistic angle of her Instagram algorithm, how she got the iconic Lisa Rena to take part in her album campaign, and who the hell is chaos-demon Cherry.

She also discusses collaborating with IDLES’ Joe Talbot, jumping in the studio with Charli XCX, and what it’s like to go from zero to 100 on your first release — the pressure, the ego, the destabilization. Plus there’s a whole sidebar about her former home in LA being invaded by 30,000 bees and we get the full story of her great-great grandparents, who were immortalized as the old couple spooning in bed in James Cameron’s Titanic. No, really.
