"Heavy Set" is a progressive soulful album fusing that 90s R&B feel with gospel undertones and HipHop wordplay. Its harmonies are layered over atmospheric tracks paired with deep lyrical content and high vibrations. The lead single "In Between" is an upbeat soul track that inspires listeners to be thankful even during the in between struggles of life. Describing the Album, Kay said, “Heavy Set" is the diary entries to my soul.” It’s about the heavy-set pressures of society to conform to arbitrary standards of beauty and success. "Heavy Set" examines how we value ourselves and show up in the world. The Album is completed by the tracks "On the Block", "Earth Angel", "Corinthians Love”, “Fame”, “Heavy Heart”, “More than I can Say”, “Familiar Soul”, “Shell of Me”, “Profit a Man”, and “You Will Remember Me.”
Raised on the south side of Chicago, Kay Soul's unique sound and powerful messages have earned her recognition in the music industry. Her soulful voice and authentic lyrics have garnered attention from both fans and critics alike. Kay Soul's previous EP, Heavy Love, released in 2024, was met with critical acclaim, and lauded as "a poignant exploration of love in its various forms" by Bored City (March 2024). Regarding the track “Better Love”, Info Music stated, “Better Love is a hymn to emotional reconstruction, a musical refuge for those who still believe in love, despite the scars.” (April 2025) Recording Artists Guild Magazine raved, “Her most recent EP called Heavy Love, is outstanding and shows different sides to how she writes and performs. There's a lot of R&B, soul-pop, and crossovers of old and new styles and approaches.” (October 2024).
"In Between" sets the perfect tone for Kay Soul’s forthcoming album with its hard-hitting lyrics and inspirational message. It will be supported by an official music video on Kay’s Vevo channel set to premier in the coming weeks.
