Paving the intersection of music, activism, and empowerment, award-winning artist Lachi drops her powerful new single, “A Girl.” This folk-inspired feminist anthem pays tribute to the trials and triumphs of womanhood, offering a raw and heartfelt celebration of resilience and authenticity.
Joined by two other collaborators of color who also proudly identify as blind— Jennifer Renée, a digital creator with Albinism and low vision, and Precious Perez, a Latina disability advocate known as the “blind reggaetonera,” along with an all-women band – Lachi delivers a soul-stirring performance that honors women who rise above adversity and redefine strength.
A visually striking performance video for “A Girl” is now available on YouTube, embodying the song’s themes of perseverance and empowerment. As feminist movements gain traction worldwide, “A Girl” offers a timely rallying cry, inspiring listeners to embrace their truth and celebrate their resilience. Shot at Amazon Music Studios, the video seamlessly incorporates sign language performance by ASL triple threat Indi Robinson, opening up with audio description at the top by blind YouTube influencer Molly Burke. It was directed by Caroline Mariko Stucky and Lachi.
“A Girl” now marks the second release from Lachi’s MAD DIFFERENT project, an ambitious and visually stunning acoustic series spotlighting intersectional identities. Supported by Amazon Music, Pop Culture Collaborative, and Glam Canes, the series combines four acoustic concerts with intimate interviews, uniting co-artists and thought leaders who defy societal norms and challenge the pursuit of perfection. Praised for its bold authenticity, the series champions diversity and self-expression while amplifying voices that demand to be heard.
