Sunday Music: Koffee Is Killing It

I saw and heard snippets over the last few years. But, my mistake, I didn’t slow down and really listen. Mikayla Simpson, known as Koffee, is a young reggae/dancehall/Jamaican/international star. Her music is both historically informed and modern. She is drawing on influences and pushing on boundaries in a unique way and we should be excited to see where she goes next. “Toast” was her breakout hit, but if unfamiliar, see also her original performance of “Legend” (a teenage tribute to Usain Bolt with her, a guitar, and a microphone), and two tracks that show off her range – “Throne” and “Ragamuffin.”
