Iniko Releases New Song “The King's Affirmation”
American alternative R&B singer-songwriter Iniko released a new song “The King's Affirmation” on April 29, 2020.
The song is their second single of 2022, following “Hourglass”.
They teased the song on TiKTok, where the song video has garnered over 20M views.
It was written by lniko Didin and produced by Ekela.
Iniko told Sweety High about the song, “'The King's Affirmation' was inspired by a Nicki Minaj song. My goal was to approach that beat as if it was given to me. I knew I could not hold back as far as what I wanted to be felt when it was heard. I knew that whatever I wrote had to be extremely intentional to the reality I am currently creating for myself. I am known for reimagining and reworking popular songs on TikTok. These lyrics came to me through challenging myself in this way.”- They continued, “This song is a sonic embodiment of true access to the magic that I possess. This song came to be because I was experiencing a lot of ignorance from people who chose not to see me for all that I am and all that I am capable of. This song channeled that. This song is me talking to every single person who has ever told me that who I am is not who I should be. Being someone whose very existence is a contradiction to many societal norms, it can become easy to feel like an outsider.”
