Natural Brown Prom Queen, the second album from Sudan Archives, landed on Stones Throw on September 9, 2022. Behind the name is Brittney Parks, a Cincinnati-born violinist, singer and songwriter now based in Los Angeles, who learned the violin by ear as a child.

"Selfish Soul" is the song radio picked up. Critics fell hard: the album drew widespread acclaim, and plenty of publications put it on their lists of 2022's best. It followed her 2019 debut Athena, and in 2023 she collected two Libera Awards, Best Breakthrough Artist/Release and Best R&B Record, before The BPM arrived in 2025.
