Home Maker

"Home Maker" is the opening track of Natural Brown Prom Queen, 5:02, and the first single, released on March 15, 2022 by Stereogum and Wikipedia and March 16 by the Fader, Clash and Uproxx; it was her first new original song in about three years. No source we read gives its writer or producer credits. Parks said in the press release, for me, homemaking is a service to mental health and coping with fear and isolation, and added, it took nesting, building a home, investing in partners that were worth my investment, to shake my anxiety and depression. Stereogum calls it an ambitiously funky track that layers ecstatic voices over a big stomp-clap dance beat, with verses that almost take on a rap cadence; Uproxx hears R&B pop with a disco diva aesthetic.

Jocelyn Anquetil directed the video, in which Parks dances in a furniture store and starts a pillow fight. She headlined the Stones Throw showcase at SXSW at the Empire Garage in Austin on March 17, 2022.
