Anjimile (Anjimile Chithambo) is a singer-songwriter whose work blends sparse acoustic arrangements with gospel and blues influences; lyrical themes include gender dysphoria, addiction and social justice.

The review for The King notes production by Shawn Everett and a guest appearance by James Krivchenia (drummer from Big Thief). The King is discussed as following the previous album Giver Taker and addresses autobiographical struggles with alcohol addiction and rehabilitation as well as incidents of racially motivated violence and transphobia.

The provided review praises The King as a potential magnum opus for Anjimile, highlighting a sparse but heavy acoustic sound and gospel/blues influences. Production choices (Shawn Everett) and guest contributions (James Krivchenia) are noted. Lyrically the album links biblical imagery to contemporary social issues and recounts autobiographical struggles with addiction and recovery.

For:Listeners of indie/folk singer-songwriters; people interested in albums addressing gender, recovery and social justice; fans of sparse acoustic production with gospel and blues influences.

 TheKing risks being the magnum opus in AnjimileChithambo's discography; whether it's due to the enthusiastic reviews in the major publications or because it exudes epicness from the artwork and the themes narrated in the tracks. When it's time to listen, expectations align perfectly with the album's content.
