Ms. Banks Delivers New Visual for "Come Thru"

South London’s Ms. Banks is gearing up for the release of her forthcoming EP The Coldest Winter, which is based on the critically-acclaimed book by Sister Souljah (via i-D Magazine, where you can check out her latest interview in full):

I read the book when I was about 13. I couldn’t watch TV cos my aunty was really strict but she saw me absorbed in this story. Little did she know it was juicier than what was on TV! …I loved it, loved it, loved it. Growing up and going through certain things, there were little parts of the story I could relate to. I feel like [the book’s main character is] exposed to a lot in her young life and I can relate to that, whether boys and sex, violence, drugs… She’s coming from nothing to something and she wants to be great, like we all do, but she doesn’t go about it the right way, unfortunately. I’m coming to something from nothing as well, but I’m trying to do it in the right way.

First, she blesses the masses with a new track and visual for “Come Thru,” which is produced by The Fanatix and centers on “black girl magic.” Check it out above.
