Kayla Brianna Is Houston’s Next R&B Princess
Galore met up with iHeart Radio Music Award nominated recording artist Kayla Brianna to chat about her girl-power collab with Dreezy and where she gets inspo for her hit R&B songs.
Where are you from?
I’m originally from Houston and moved out to LA to pursue acting, just like 80% of people out here. I eventually landed a deal with Interscope Records, then went independent and have been recording and touring ever since.
What have you been working on most recently?
Right now I have been working with London On The Track on my EP coming out this year. I also got nominated for an iHeart Radio Music Award so I’m freaking out trying to figure out what I’m going to wear to it, even though it’s in a month.
What are the lyrics about in your songs?
The lyrics are mainly about the relationships I’ve been in over the past couple years — the good, the bad, the ugly. Then there’s also fun club records like “Luck” which features Dreezy. That track is a great sort of female anthem.
What are you working on for the future?
I’m working on releasing my music video for my newest single. I’m also preparing for a role in an upcoming TV show.
Who are some of your biggest inspirations?
My most major inspiration is Beyonce, for obvious reasons and the fact that we’re both from Houston. I also love Rihanna, Brandy, and Aaliyah.
Who’s a big style icon for you?
Rihanna.
What’s your favorite beauty product of the moment?
I’m loving a great concealer so right now, NARS has a really dope one that I use every day. It’s called the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer.
Who is your dream artist to collaborate with?
Definitely Drake.
Where can we find your stuff?
