Kali Uchis has released the second single from her forthcoming Sincerely, album. Described in press materials as one of the first songs Uchis wrote following the birth of her son, “ILYSMIH” closes the 14-track album. Listen to it below.
Uchis made her new song with co-producers Dylan Wiggins and Josh Crocker. “‘ILYSMIH’ is me sharing a piece of my heart with the world,” she said in a statement. “Living a life that is rich in love and inner peace hasn’t come easy. I hope this song will find anyone who needs it.”
Sincerely,—Uchis’ third studio album in as many years, following 2024’s Orquídeas and 2023’s Red Moon in Venus—is out May 9, marking her first release on Capitol Records. She shared the album’s lead single, “Sunshine & Rain…,” last month.
