MILCK went viral last year when she organized a flash mob performance of her tune “Quiet” at the Women’s March On Washington on January 21st, 2017. It was a song which was motivated partly by the singer’s past experiences with sexual and physical abuse. It was her way of stating that she will not be silence. It ended up becoming an anthem of women empowerment.
In a similar vein, MILCK recently released “This Is Not The End”. She made the following comments about the motivation behind the song: “In light of the Harvey Weinstein scandals sparking a massive movement of women and survivors speaking out against sexual assault, I find myself in awe and moved to my core. Since the age of 14 I’ve survived several acts of sexual assault. For years, I blamed myself and secretly carried the shame.” The tune is definitely a timely rallying cry in the wake of the #MeToo movement. The day of reckoning for sexual predators has been long overdue and it is happening in full force.
The song is also the title track on MILCK’s debut EP, which is set to be released on January 19th.
