K La chooses herself on “Cold”

K La, formerly known by her full name Kayla Williams, marks a shift in her artistic identity with the release of “Cold”. The track starts off strong with a confidence and edge that makes it hard to ignore, setting the tone for a song that refuses to back down. An anthem for a transitionary period where K La has a true sense of who she is and what she stands for.

Your love only flows when you see me getting cold

“Cold” isn’t about lack of care for the other person. It’s having more care for yourself. Boundaries aren’t just setting them, they’re maintaining them. Holding the front line when time and time again they are pressed, tempted, and appearing in late night calls when someone tries to pull you back in. There’s something dangerous about a woman who no longer puts someone else before herself. 

The track lives in the aftermath of heartbreak, in those moments of realization when you choose yourself. There’s a sense of self-preservation, but also a sense of conviction. K La refuses to lose herself in “Cold”. 

Sometimes choosing yourself paints you as the villain in someone else’s story. “Cold” makes peace with that.
