YK Osiris has always been ahead of the curve. The 22-year-old singer, who’s been at the leading edge of R&B since his debut three years ago, uses an unconventional vocal style to channel urgency, tenderness, and confidence in a way few artists could ever hope to. Even when he was a kid, the people around him knew he was special. A teacher coined a nickname that would eventually become part of his stage name: Young King. Today, that moniker seems fitting for someone who appears destined to reign over R&B and hip-hop. After breaking through with 2019’s Gold-certified The Golden Child—featuring his triple-Platinum single “Worth It”—Osiris is ready to reintroduce himself with a new collection of songs that showcase his vocal dexterity and arresting songwriting. Recorded over nearly two years, Osiris’ new project shows marked artistic growth, translating a range of complicated emotions into slick songs that are sure to become inescapable the second they hit the airwaves. For his part, Osiris isn’t sweating the details. “The music is gonna speak for itself,” he says.
