Brooklyn vocalist Mima Good has debuted her new single “Cool” which you can listen to below. Talking about writing the track, Good says “I’ve always had trouble fitting into one genre, one crowd, one look. When I wrote Cool, I was sarcastically attempting to simplify myself into a neat little indie bubble.” Recounts Mima. “It started out as a joke, but as I layered on new instruments, I peeled back the onion to more sincere feelings about accessibility to community and image. When I wrote the second verse and the line: ‘their sneakers look just like yours, but from a different place’, I was thinking about how much capitalism controls coolness. At the time, everyone was wearing the same white sneakers. Some were hundreds of dollars and some were $40 rip offs, but everyone was attempting to belong to the same clean box.”
Good released her first EP Good Girl in 2018.
