Praise for Anna Wise + The Feminine: Act II + her collaboration on Kendrick Lamar’s track “PRIDE.” for new LP DAMN.
“‘The Feminine: Act I,’ which offered a quick glimpse into the ups and downs of womanhood. With her forthcoming EP, ‘The Feminine: Act II,’ Wise treads a similar road, presenting a lucid set of dream-pop and R&B designed to uplift the masses.” – NPR
“She’s [Wise] becoming a main-stage attraction in her own right. ‘Coconuts,’ the first single from her upcoming album ‘The Feminine: Act II,’ retains the pop/R&B elements of her previous album, ‘The Feminine: Act I,’ it also builds upon them with laid-back jazz undertones.” – Pitchfork
“‘The Feminine: Act II,’ just came out, and it’s a curiously inventive work that mixes future-funk, dusty R&B and experimental pop. Like singer-innovators such as Erykah Badu, Dawn Richard and Björk, Wise’s best work transcends genre. The only constant? Her willingness to explore the outer edges of contemporary pop music.” – LA Times
“Music doesn’t get any more authentic than Anna Wise.” – Paper
“Hypnotic songwriter” – Rolling Stone
“Anna Wise declares the power in womanhood” – The FADER
“Instantly iconic” – Wonderland Magazine
“Anna is a singer who has worked with Kendrick throughout his career. You might remember her from ‘Real’ off of ‘GKMC’ or ‘These Walls’ from ‘To Pimp A Butterfly,’ the latter of which won her a Grammy. She’s also a member of the group Sonnymoon and has released an excellent solo album [‘The Feminine: Act II’]. Gorgeous singing voice.” – Complex
“The aptly named ‘The Feminine: Act II,’ Wise leans into spindly R&B and airy jazz…Wise continues to demonstrate the high level of her craft and singularity of her vision.” – Stereogum
“The visuals synchronizes perfectly with the rising synths and warm brass of the song itself, reflecting the harmony experienced on set between the women.” – Consequence of Sound
“Anna Wise, purveyor of damn good music with damn good lyrics and some damn good beats…” – Milk
“Her words are powerful” – Salon
“Anna Wise is trailblazing feminist pop” – Vogue
