While most music fans out there might know Momo Boyd from her feature on Baby Keem‘s “Good Flirts” (along with Kendrick Lamar), the singer and songwriter has her own independent career of genre-fluid music that is definitely worth diving into. A great place to start is the gorgeous, pining torch song “Cold Hands.”
At times sparse, with just Boyd’s vocals and light guitar accompaniment, the song blooms into a full-blown orchestral number. In the vein of Lana Del Rey, Boyd lets her vocal work showcase both a delicate touch and a full-throated torch song in the span of minutes. As she sings “I’m not afraid anymore” it’s not hard to believe the track will be soundtracking hundreds of future emotional moments in film or television shows.
Momo Boyd is definitely one to watch, and one to listen to. Hear “Cold Hands” in our Check This 2026 Playlist!
