Music News - Star 94.7

Hailey Kilogore has been really grabbing our attention these last few months with the recent release of her EP “Desire and Devotion” (co-executive produced by Adam Blackstone) and her handful of singles that came out before that. Known for the role of Ti Moune on the Broadway show Once on This Island and as Jukebox on Power Book III: Raising Kanan, this singer/songwriter is now tackling a new journey of becoming an independent artist.
Although clearly an accomplished actress and individual already (she’s been nominated for a Tony Award after all), it’s now Hailey Kilogore’s time to shine as the powerhouse vocalist and songwriter she is. With songs like “Three” and “Miss U” that provide 90’s/2000’s nostalgia while keeping it fresh, Hailey is quickly becoming one of our favorite female R&B acts. Bringing back storytelling and emotion in her music through her lyrical content and vocal ability, it’s no wonder why we feel she will be a major threat in the years to come. We talked to Hailey about some artists who inspired her, the meaning behind her EP “Desire and Devotion”, working with Adam Blackstone, and much more.

YouKnowIGotSoul: So of course I gotta say congrats on the EP and on the release. You’re a vocalist to me, when I hear you sing it’s like wow, so where’d you get that vocal ability from? Talk about your background in music in general.
Hailey Kilgore: I’ve always loved to sing. It’s always been my safe spot. It’s always been where I feel like I can be the most vulnerable, the most authentic, the most honest. Ever since I was a baby, I’ve been singing even when I was a little girl. It didn’t matter if we were in the grocery store, I would sing full out. It didn’t matter if we were at the gas station, I would sing full out. That’s just what I loved. My parents really supported and nurtured my gift. I would not be here vocally if it weren’t for them. I’ve done theater, I’ve done gospel choir, which I love, I’ve done Hip-Hop with Power. I’ve just done so many things with my voice that I’ve always been kind of hiding behind a character, singing someone else’s music or covering someone else’s music. So it was really exciting when I took on the EP for sure.
YouKnowIGotSoul: Tell me a few artists and albums that influenced your style and made you want to start making music.
Hailey Kilgore: Songs in the Key of A Minor by Alicia Keys. I love her endlessly. I respect her endlessly. Really watching her, observing all the behind the scenes and live performances and even being in the room with her, she really taught me to focus on the artistry of the song. I’m of a generation where it’s about maybe the viral-bilty of a song, making sure a song is viral enough, making sure a song is gonna pop off on TikTok or whatever the case may be, which is beautiful in a lot of ways, but she really taught me the artistry of writing a song and making sure the emotion is in the song. So her, definitely Whitney Houston, Christina Aguilera, just all of the divas. All of the people who really sing, that’s who inspired me.
YouKnowIGotSoul: I wanted your perspective on this whole Tik-Tok era because you make music that’s so opposite of that. I say that as a compliment because that’s what we love and it reminds me of the stuff that I grew up with. Is it a little bit intimidating to see where the atmosphere is when you put out these songs?
Hailey Kilgore: I think it’s cool. I think that at first I was like, okay, this is where we are laughs . I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not, but the more that I observe kind of this culture where music is at and finding music, I like to separate the artistry from making it promotable or whatever the right word is. I find it very interesting. I love seeing people connect to different songs in different ways, and I think it’s also giving more opportunities for independent artists like me, unknown musical artists like me. While yes we still have to fight the record labels and all of that stuff, we have this new found outlet that we can share directly to consumers [like] “Hey, this is what I’ve got going on. I hope you connect to it in some way. I hope it makes you feel something”. So I think it’s cool.
YouKnowIGotSoul: I wanna really focus on the music because it’s amazing and I feel like you deserve to get that spotlight. Who were you listening to when you made the EP and where was your headspace at? Who were you drawing inspiration from when you took on this project?
Hailey Kilgore: Like I said, Alicia Keys. I have this really special playlist that’s kind of like my writing playlist and it’s literally called “the Playlist”. It’s got Janet. It’s got Whitney. It’s got Muni Long. I have so much respect for her as an artist. She really even inspired me on the business end of things. There’s so many people. Coco Jones is on it. Kiana Ledé. I love Kiana Ledé. I love her personality. I love how real she is and I love how real her music is. Ariana Grande, which was interesting because I used to be a really, really big Ariana Grande fan when I was like a kid, but as I’ve gotten older and I go back and listen to Yours Truly, all of her earlier projects, I really respect her musicality. I really loved that for inspiration. Those were kind of the main artists I listened to.
YouKnowIGotSoul: It’s funny you mentioned Muni Long. Right now I have a favorite group of female musicians from this generation, you’re one of them. Muni Long, Jai’Len Josey, Nija and Joyce Wrice are some others, so you’re definitely in that caliber. Let’s go back to the EP. What is the meaning behind the title, Desire And Devotion?
Hailey Kilgore: We worked on the project for four years. It has been a journey. There were moments where it was extremely difficult and heartbreaking, and then there were also these breakthrough, beautiful artistic, I see the light moments at the same time. Desire and Devotion really came to us when we finally had a full body of work. I actually had like two or three albums worth of music ready to go. It was a little difficult getting a hold of my producer Adam Blackstone sometimes, because he’s literally everywhere: world tours, Oscars, Super Bowl. He’s doing it all, but he was also helping me. I love Adam. I’m so grateful for Adam. We sat down and had a meeting, and he was like “Girl, you have too many songs. Why don’t you split them up into smaller projects?”. One, because that way it’s easier for the listener to digest and really fall in love with certain songs. And two, longevity and being able to have the Rolodex of music ready to go.
Desire and Devotion came from falling in love. We decided that we were gonna split the album up into two parts. So there’s Desire and Devotion, and then part two is Heartbreak and Healing. You get a mini exclusive right there. Desire and Devotion is the story of falling in love, whatever that means for someone. Falling in love with yourself, falling in love with someone else. And the story between the two because in my [early twenties], you know, you’re in your early twenties as well, I experienced really deep, real, beautiful love for the first time. It starts as one thing, but then it ends as something else. I think there’s something to be said for lust, romance and the fantasy of all of that, which is beautiful and a beautiful experience in and of itself. That is kind of the first half of the EP. It’s all about the lusty, sensual moments. Then as we go to the second part of the EP, which is a little bit more ballady, a little bit more vulnerable, it’s about that true devotion to someone and that true level of commitment. So yeah, that’s where the title came from.
YouKnowIGotSoul: I love that. That definitely tells me why we like your music so
