Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by Kevin Cole, host of Drive Time on KEXP, is "Ur Boyfriend's Wack" by Grove, a 2021 single on Memorials of Distinction x Spinny Nights.
Bristol-based producer Grove celebrates their "queerness" in today's Song of the Day. In a press release, they claim the song is “part satire about wack boyfriends who do The Bare Minimum, part informed by the experience of rejecting my own sexuality when younger. It is a steezy reclaiming of pride in that queerness, and departing the space where shame was part and parcel of my lived experience.”
Grove will release a new EP titled QUEER + BLACK on February 23 via Memorials of Distinction/Spinny Nights. The release is described as "an exploration of personal and political identity."
