Lao Ra returns with new single ‘No Pressure’
LA-based, Bogotá-born Lao Ra returns today with the gorgeous new single No Pressure, out now on Black Butter Records. This is her first brand new music of 2018 and acts as the first track from a project to be unveiled across the year. I am loving this summery beat and her vocals are a pleasure to listen to. Lao Ra is now digging deeper into her South American heritage than ever before and you can clearly see it in this song. Check out the official music video below!
Speaking about No Pressure Lao Ra said,
‘No Pressure’ is about emotional unavailability. It’s that feeling of not being able to give more of yourself in a new relationship because of a past love that still lingers, and the offer of something transient instead.
Lao Ra's distinctive pop sound combines elements of dancehall, reggaeton, afrobeat, and hip-hop. Alongside the release, Lao Ra has just announced UK and European live dates, playing London’s Pickle Factory on September 12th.
