October 28, 2024Meet Laila!, New York’s rising talent—rapper, singer, songwriter, and producer—making serious waves with her latest single, “Want 2.” As the daughter of Yasiin Bey (formerly known as Mos Def), Laila! is carving her own lane in the music world, blending alternative R&B, neo-soul, and synth-funk with undeniable talent.
“Want 2” is a smooth, synth-driven track where Laila! comes clean, creating a beat for a love interest and letting him know she’s exactly the type he’s looking for. Self-produced like her entire debut album Gap Year!, this track spotlights her skills not just as a lyricist but as an overall creator.
Laila! proves she’s a powerhouse, balancing elements of pop, neo-psychedelia, and jerknb throughout her album and demonstrating she’s here to stay.
