Multi-award winning UK Gospel artist ALIA LARA released her newest single along with an electrifying music video on Friday 16th August, surprising her listeners with a nostalgic 90s/00s R&B track called ‘Kingdom’ which is heavily inspired by the Lord’s Prayer found in Matthew 6. Alia described the song as a “perfect nod toward her favourite era of music” which is what ultimately inspired her R&B sound to date.
Talking about the single, Alia was elated to announce that her new song ‘Kingdom’ is the first glance of her upcoming EP, which is rumoured to be released in or around September. Here are some more comments from the Gospel artist:
ALIA LARA - "So much passion, emotion and dedication goes into every song I have written to date, but Kingdom in particular has such a special place in my heart because of all that went into it...including my experiences, the creative process, and what i learned throughout. I spent 5 whole days editing the music video myself, I learned so much about myself and so many more skills as an independent artist planning, directing and editing a music video from stratch, styling the outfits, hair, lighting...it was so fun and I praise The Most High for allowing me to do what I love everyday and know that it is ultimately all to serve and worship Him."
"...I also love that I got 1Timothy, my wonderful partner of 9 years, (who also co-produced the track) to record some of his vocals for the "come on"s and the "yeah"s that you hear in the background, that is so special to me because he is also a massive part of my journey and walk with The Most High, which makes the song almost a full circle moment. I am so excited to share this dong with listeners around the world, I really hope they are able to resonate with it just as much as I do, and I hope it can become one of their favourites, because it is honestly one of mine!"
Raving comments about the track from listeners around the world so far are:
“This is beyond expected from Alia, and we LOVE IT!”
“The song gives 90s/early 2000s/The Cheetah Girls vibes, It’s on REPEAT!”
“When you think you are back in 1999/2000 but it’s from 2024 and it’s actually amazing Christian music”.
