In addition to being a plea for her love, the song describes this perfect woman and MAJOR.’s long-term aspirations. The instruments and background vocals create the ideal support for the main vocals. Catchy and singable, every listener will easily remember the song. MAJOR.’s smooth and silky voice perfectly brings the words to life, and he showcases his highly developed falsetto in his final emphatic plea. Throughout “Baby Will You Love Me”, MAJOR. pours out his heart in hopes that he will receive the decisive Yes!
There is a meaning behind his birth name MAJOR. (spelled with all caps and a period at the end) but even more purpose behind his music. The multi-faceted singer delivers a soulful-pop sound to the new age. MAJOR.’s distinct voice and cool presence gives birth to an aura that he exudes from the inside out.

In the ever-evolving landscape of contemporary R&B and soul, authenticity is a currency that few artists truly master. Kristian King, a rising star from Toronto, has built his artistry on raw emotion and unapologetic self-expression. His latest single, Prince Charming, is not just a song—it’s a heartfelt declaration of self-worth, longing, and the journey to finding love both within and outside oneself.
A Personal and Universal Story
At its core, Prince Charming is an anthem of self-discovery, wrapped in smooth melodies and poignant lyricism. King, a young queer Black artist navigating his 20s, brings a deeply personal perspective to the track, using his music to explore themes of love, identity, and acceptance. “This track serves as a powerful reminder of my self-worth,” King shares. “It’s about understanding that before anyone can be a King, they must first embrace their identity as a Prince.”
This sentiment resonates throughout the song’s lyrics, which paint a picture of searching for something real in a world of distractions and superficial connections. Lines like “I’m in a room with people I don’t like, I’m looking for you in all of the lights” capture the feeling of isolation in a crowd, while the chorus emphasizes the deep desire for an authentic connection.
The Sound of Longing and Liberation
Sonically, Prince Charming is a masterclass in emotional storytelling. King’s smooth, expressive vocals glide over an ethereal R&B-infused production, creating a soundscape that feels both melancholic and hopeful. The track’s gentle instrumentation allows his voice and lyrics to take center stage, reinforcing the intimacy of the narrative. There’s an unmistakable push-and-pull between vulnerability and empowerment, as King shifts from longing for love to recognizing his own value.
The Symbolism of Royalty
One of the most compelling aspects of Prince Charming is its metaphor of royalty. The title itself challenges traditional fairytale narratives—rather than waiting for a rescuer, King redefines the idea of what it means to be ‘Prince Charming.’ The song suggests that before someone can truly step into their power (a King), they must first navigate the complexities of self-love and self-acceptance (a Prince). It’s a message that speaks to anyone on a journey of personal growth, making the track universally relatable.
A Bold Step Forward
Kristian King has consistently used his music as a platform for visibility and empowerment, and Prince Charming is no exception. As he continues to carve out space in the music industry, his work stands as a testament to the importance of authenticity in art. The single also sets the stage for his upcoming project, Delicate, which will further explore the trials and triumphs of young adulthood.
With Prince Charming, Kristian King offers more than just a song—he delivers an experience that is both deeply personal and widely resonant. It’s a reminder that self-worth is the foundation for all love, and that sometimes, the real magic isn’t in finding a ‘Prince Charming,’ but in becoming one for yourself.
