BRI HALL aka LA HARA releases “Unlawful”

Rising R&B artist La Hara – better known as influencer Bri Hall – is back with a new bop! Just yesterday, the singer-songwriter partnered with LADYGUNN to unveil her new single “Unlawful.” They raved: “…brains, beauty, and wisdom. Now she can add sorcerer of music and magic to her list.” The new single follows her smash debut “Mindful” which PopSugar revealed in their ‘F*Cking Awesome Females’ column. In awe of her “prowess,” they asserted that “La Hara is ready to make waves in the music industry.” Shortly after, the visual launched with NYLON. La Hara plans to release new content throughout the year but for now fans can stream “Unlawful” below or here: https://LaHara.lnk.to/Unlawful.

Hall has already racked up over 1 million fans across social media and an impressive view count of 40 million on her YouTube channel independently. Using her platform and reach to go beyond beauty tutorials, Hall addresses a wide range of social issues from wellness and abuse to self-love and black feminism while also working with the likes of international names Calvin Klein and Google. After achieving such a massive level of triumph in the digital age at only 24 years old, most would be content to settle on their laurels – but not her. Possessing a natural inclination towards music, Hall started exploring another side of her creative personality, drawing influence from ’80s, ’90s, and contemporary R&B showstoppers from Denise Williams, Lauryn Hill, and Sade to H.E.R. and Ari Lennox.

When asked about the new single, Hall said: “Have you ever experienced a love so powerful, yet the world wants to see it fail? ‘Unlawful’ is about the choice to love and the fight that comes with it. Perhaps you’re from rival cultures or religions, are interracial, LGBTQ+, or from different social classes… It can be about fighting the outside world because of how you identify but it can also be about fighting for a relationship with a person who has changed, tough circumstances, or hardship. Like many of my songs, there is a duality of self reflection. All in all, sometimes the fight to love gets dirty, difficult, and ‘Unlawful.’ Whether it’s loving yourself or someone else. There can be so many meanings behind it – the listener can ultimately take it as they want.”
