'Super Sad Generation' was entirely self-written between the ages of 16-18 is a delicate ode to the emotionally wrought youth of today. Since her debut track 'Cola', Parks has been heavily championed by the likes of BBC Radio 1, BBC 1Xtra, Beats1, Radio X and Foundation FM, as well as COLORS, FADER, Complex, Noisey, Guardian, Gal-Dem, The Face, The Line of Best Fit, DIY, Clash, LOVE Magazine, Wonderland, Independent and many more. She also counts Killing Eve's Jodie Comer, Lily Allen and Amandla Stenberg amongst her ever-growing list of fans.
Now at just nineteen, the young London based singer demonstrates soul and compassion beyond her years, and says she "made this record to pay tribute to all those kids that are in a lot of pain and are confused as to why". On a personal level, Parks struggled with her identity growing up; a self-confessed tom boy who was super sensitive and "uncool", she says it was like "I'm a black kid who can't dance for shit, listens to emo music and currently has a crush on some girl in my Spanish class." By the time she reached 17, she shaved her head, figured out she was bisexual and produced/wrote an album's worth of material.
