Kilamanzego is an electronic music producer, vocalist, and visual artist based in Philadelphia. Her name - "kill-a-man's-ego" - is an extension of the appetite for fearlessness and risk-taking that comes across clearly on her new single.

"Meditate" is a downtempo track that builds a dreamlike soundscape with electronic beats and dynamic interludes, along with assorted synth-based ear candy, an airy vocal drop, and some intricate notes on acoustic piano. The groove is both original and a bit surprising, as Kilamanzego - her real name is Kay Oko - mixes elements of melodic downtempo and glitch. "Meditate" delivers a vibe as chill as it sounds: with a vintage ARP by her side, Oko mines a complex and varied aesthetic from the depths of her creative mind.
