British-Indian singer Prianca RA to release new single ‘One Time In Lebanon’

Leicester-born singer and songwriter Prianca RA has announced the release of her new single called ‘One Time In Lebanon’.

Her new song is inspired by movies Prianca has watched and books she has read about challenging patriarchy and traditions. In the song, Prianca created a world set in Lebanon where a girl named Habiba wants to break away from conventions and create her own path. Habiba has a queue of eligible bachelors wanting to marry her and promising her they will look after her: “They want Habiba, to hold her hand forever…. And have their children look like her.”

A free spirit, Habiba doesn’t care that she will face judgment from society for not getting married and letting a man provide for her. She “took the road less travelled by” because she “doesn’t belong to anyone.” Prianca RA wants to empower her listeners and show them you can take a different route to the conventional one and the connotations of ‘happily ever after’ and having a man become your husband to provide for you is outdated.

Strong from that multicultural background, Prianca RA blends Bollywood-inspired melodies with a soulful twist. Passionate about helping others, Prianca RA aims to bring more awareness around mental health and reduce the stigma surrounding mental health through music.

The single releases on 31st July 2022.
