Arca Shares New Song “Mequetrefe”: Listen

Arca has shared a new song, “Mequetrefe,” from her forthcoming album KiCK i, scheduled for release on July 17 via XL. In a statement, Arca said “Mequetrefe” is about “the tenderness behind expressing who you are without shame, and the confidence and bravery it requires, because expression of gender-nonconforming self-states in a public space can often result in static within your environment.” Listen to “Mequetrefe” below.

“Mequetrefe” follows the previously released singles “Nonbinary” and “Time.” Arca also recently teamed up with Shygirl for “unconditional,” a Bandcamp-exclusive single whose proceeds went to Black Lives Matter and Inquest UK.
