about

As the title suggests, the composition is an ode to the Divine Feminine. MMYYKK expands… “Black women taught me how to love. Women literally save the world every day. This track was a way for me to express appreciation and sing praises to the women in my life.”

An exceedingly difficult artist to pigeonhole, MMYYKK (pronounced ‘Mike’) works concurrently within the realms of soul, future-funk, R&B, hip hop, jazz & fusion; his sound equally indebted to his fellow west coast natives Thundercat and Flying Lotus as it is to synth experimentalists Herbie Hancock and Stevie wonder.

On the other end of the musical spectrum, MMYYKK is also an accomplished ambient artist, having released ‘Mellow Moods & Meditations’ in 2020 as well as producing ‘PASSAGE’ - a black mental health & wellness initiative in collaboration with okayplayer which debuted earlier this year.

Divine serves as a perfect teaser for the full record, balancing musicianship with playfulness, spirituality and social responsibility in a way that few artists manage - all while sounding completely effortless and 100% funky. MMYYKK enters the world stage with a timeless classic with crossover potential.

lyrics

She holds the keys to the universe Somewhere in her
purse
Probably next to the make-up
She holds the world in balance
All while maintaining the balancing act
Of running in those heels
(Tryin’ to catch a cab
While I'm catching feels)
And She ain't too soft to make a grown man cry
You lookin’ for trouble with that disrespect
She could break you down wit one look
See through your lies (Have you shook)
Making you second guess coming incorrect
She holds the key to the universe
Somewhere in her purse
Probably next to the makeup
Or somewhere under the hot sauce
She's something like a boss
[Chorus]
Divine feminine
Nothing less than sublime feminine
So aligned genuine feminine
Type to stay on my mind feminine
The type to stay on my mind Stay on my mind
[Chant]
Yemoja
Yeye omo eja
Olokun
Oshun (Iyami Aje)
[Verse 2]
She holds the keys to the universe
Somewhere in her purse
Probably next to the make up
Or somewhere under the lip gloss
(You know she like to floss)
She’s a complicated melody
Not no one’s apostrophe
Can’t be claimed
She ain’t yours
And I can feel a healing waterfall
Of energy
Flooding over me
When I’m around you
There’s something so vibrant
About you
Syncopation in my chest gettin’ violent
When I’m around you I’m in tune with the
[Chorus]
[Chant]
[Chorus + Chant]
I’d like
