Born in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and raised in the UK, Miles From Kinshasa (aka Vivien Kongolo) is a South London based singer, multi-instrumentalist and producer fusing R&B, soul, rap and pop with influences from around the world.
Following the release of his debut EP IVRY/KAYA and its leading track "IVRY", Miles From Kinshasa reveals his new single "Fireworks" which explores the idea that familiarity breeds contempt: "The fireworks that were once the crux have only left smoke and a dying relationship" – and concludes that “end of means end of… it's over.”
The accompanying video (co-directed by Vivien and close collaborator Kadiata) is a one-shot visual painting of the pursuit of inner peace and closure, and features Vivien still wielding his vice as he heads towards the calmness of the water. The video premiered on Noisey UK on April 25th.
Keep an eye for tour dates as Miles From Kinshasa has shown through his videos that the visual aspect of his craft is important to him - no doubt the same love will be applied to live performances.
