Ksenia’s ‘Main Course’ is Serving Up More Than Just Music

Sometimes the most compelling artists are those who refuse to be categorized. Los Angeles-based artist Ksenia has just dropped her latest single “Main Course,” a punchy 2-minute-29-second track that perfectly captures her unique blend of pop, hip-hop, and comedic charm. The single, released on February 12th, isn’t just another pop song – it’s a testament to the artist’s knack for weaving sharp wit with genuinely empowering messages.

You might be wondering how a performer from a tiny Russian village (where, she jokes, bears outnumbered people) ended up becoming one of LA’s most refreshing multi-hyphenate entertainers. Yet here she is, making waves across the industry with her distinctive style. Her music has caught the attention of major platforms, landing spots on MTV, Music Choice, and Nick Music, while grabbing features in HipHopSince1987, The Breakfast Club, and even Billboard Argentina.

“Main Course” feels like a natural evolution of Ksenia’s artistic vision, serving up a feast of self-worth wrapped in clever wordplay and an irresistibly catchy beat. When asked about the track’s message, she puts it simply but powerfully: “I hope women would never settle for being a side dish!” It’s this kind of straightforward authenticity that has helped her build a devoted following on Instagram and TikTok.

Her path to success wasn’t exactly conventional. What started as playful rap performances during her stand-up comedy sets gradually evolved into a full-fledged music career. She draws inspiration from an eclectic mix of artists – think Britney Spears’ infectious pop hooks, Eminem’s narrative prowess, and the genre-defying creativity of contemporary artists like Doja Cat and Sabrina Carpenter. Her work with producers behind hits for Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez, and Britney Spears has only helped refine her distinctive sound.

While many know Ksenia for her high-energy, humor-infused performances, she’s got more than a few tricks up her sleeve. Take her notable 2020 collaboration with renowned vocal coach Stevie Mackey, “Only Want You More” – a track that’s quietly amassed nearly 800,000+ Spotify streams. It showcases a different side of her artistry, proving she can deliver impressive vocal chops and emotional depth just as effectively as she can land a punchline.

In an industry that often pushes artists into narrow lanes, Ksenia has somehow managed to carve out her own space as a musician, award-winning actress, stand-up comedian, and social media influencer. Her face has lit up Times Square billboards, and her music regularly finds its way onto major streaming playlists – not bad for someone who started out doing comedy sets with funny rap interludes.

These days, you’ll find Ksenia hard at work on new music and an upcoming comedy special. Her success story isn’t just about talent or luck – it’s about having the courage to blend seemingly disparate elements into something authentically her own. Whether you catch her on stage, on your playlist, or on your social media feed, one thing’s clear: she’s not just serving up music, she’s bringing a whole new flavor to the entertainment industry.

Perhaps what makes Ksenia’s music so compelling isn’t just its catchiness or wit, but the fearless authenticity behind every note. As “Main Course” demonstrates, she’s not just making music – she’s rewriting the rules of what an artist can be.

“Main Course” is now streaming on Spotify and other major platforms.
