ON THE RISE
Brooklyn’s own Har’Monique, celebrates the release of her first single in over two years, “One In A Million.” Serving as the lead track from her eagerly awaited album Monique, this song is set to rekindle the flame that listeners have been missing. “One In A Million” is an ode to uninhibited passion and desire. With an infectious beat and sultry vocals, this song sets the stage for a period of intense connection between lovers where the world outside dissolves into obscurity.
“I usually do more pop than R&B since R&B can be a bit slow for my taste. And this song was written in 2017, so I don’t even recall where I was mentally at the time, but I fell in love with this melody and wanted to do something with it,” said Har’Monique.
Released on July 12th, “One In A Million” is the first of many singles to come off Har'Monique’s forthcoming album Monique set to release in April 2025. Over the next several months, Har'Monique plans to drop a new single every other month to get fans prepared for the new music. It’s a lengthy but cohesive album showcasing Har'Monique’s eclectic range, offering a mix of pop ballads, reggae-inspired pop songs, R&B, and some hip-hop.
“I don’t want to be put into a box - ever. This album is a taste of me, and the next song will be pop-based!” enthused Har’Monique.
Having spent over a decade crafting and recording music, Har'Monique boasts an extensive catalog. Though Monique is her first official album release, it marks her seventh in a lineup of eight self-written projects yet to be released. As the album takes shape, the tracklist remains fluid, but fans can expect a robust collection of 15 to 20 tracks, consistent with the length of her previous albums.
Hands-on with every aspect of production, Har'Monique is in the studio three days a week pumping out songs in preparation for this album release. While she leads the creative process, she also collaborates with EngineEarSu, an engineer from Luxor Studios in Brooklyn, and for mastering, she works with Elliot James Mulhern from Soundbetter.com. Additionally, she’s teamed up with U.Kay Hip Productions for the music video for “One In A Million,” is already out."
“I had a lot of producers and engineers who doubted my creative abilities. I couldn’t believe the ways they tried to limit me,” continued Har’Monique, “I’m finally working with people who get me and what I’m trying to put out and have the patience to work with my creative process. I don’t like to be told when something is ready. I’m not a perfectionist; it’s simply that these songs are my babies - this is my image and my brand.”
Har'Monique's artistic journey began with writing novels and short stories in elementary school, earning her recognition and opportunities to share her work. By middle school and high school, she balanced her academic responsibilities with a passion for storytelling, often writing novels, short stories, and poems on the side. Her professional foray into music began when an ex-boyfriend, an audio engineer, encouraged her to try writing and recording music, which ignited a deeper interest in developing original music.
“It’s a creative expression and outlet for me. It’s not about the celebrity factor; it’s about the artistry. I love writing, and while I enjoy singing, my focus is on the sound, the body of music itself, what is created,” added Har’Monique.
While she is hyper-focused on the new album and the music video for the single “One In A Million,” Har’Monique is excited to share that live performances and appearances are coming soon! To catch more from this up-and-coming pop star, listen to the new single, “One In A Million,” available across all music streaming platforms, and follow Har’Monique on Instagram @har_monique23 for news, music, updates, and more.

NETHERLANDS — August 26, 2026 — Brook Lynn is stepping into a new chapter with “Love Your Enemy,” an atmospheric alternative pop song that turns an intensely personal battle with anxiety into a message of self-acceptance. Written after her America’s Got Talent auditions, the song captures the internal conflict of facing the person who can be hardest to silence: yourself.
Built around cinematic production and emotionally restrained vocals, “Love Your Enemy” explores the disconnect between appearing fine in public and confronting difficult thoughts in private. The song’s central message is reflected in its chorus, where Brook Lynn sings about being “my own worst company” before arriving at its most hopeful realization: “They say, ‘Love your enemy,’ / So I’m learning how to love me.”
For Brook Lynn, that “enemy” is anxiety. Rather than presenting it as something that simply disappears, the song examines what it means to live with those thoughts while refusing to let them dictate what comes next.
“I always want to give a hopeful message in every song,” Brook Lynn explains. “I always first want to explain what is happening in your head and what you feel, and then, at the end, give a message that you can get out of this, and that anxiety doesn’t have to hold you back from all the things you want to achieve in your life.”
That message became especially significant when Brook Lynn made the decision to perform “Love Your Enemy” on America’s Got Talent. Known by many viewers for her stripped-back cover performances, she recognized that performing an original song on one of television’s biggest stages carried a different kind of risk. But she also knew she could not continue forward without showing audiences the artist behind the covers.
“I just thought it was really important to also show the world that I’m not just a cover singer,” she says. “I do want people to know that I write songs and I want to be an artist and put that out there.”
Brook Lynn performed “Love Your Enemy” during the America’s Got Talent quarterfinals, bringing the song’s story of anxiety and self-doubt directly to a massive live audience. Her journey on the show ended there, but the response made one thing clear: listeners wanted to hear more. Fans connected not only with her voice, but with the honesty behind the performance and the willingness to speak openly about emotions many people struggle to acknowledge themselves.
“I do want to be that person with my music as well for other people,” Brook Lynn says, describing her desire to write about real experiences and feelings. “I always want to be really real with everyone, like talk about deeper stuff, not surface level.”
“Love Your Enemy” arrives as Brook Lynn looks ahead to Tales From The Woods, an upcoming EP intended to introduce listeners to a broader picture of who she is as an artist. With only two original songs currently released, she says she is excited to share more music and continue developing the sound and emotional world introduced through “Love Your Enemy.”
The song is not a conclusion to Brook Lynn’s story. It is the beginning of a more open one—one where anxiety can be acknowledged without being allowed to take control, and where the feelings people are often afraid to say out loud can finally have a voice.
Listen to “Love Your Enemy,” which received promotional support from Starlight PR.
Brook Lynn creates music that feels intimate yet powerful, cinematic yet emotionally exposed. Blending atmospheric alternative pop with minimalist visual storytelling, her work explores vulnerability, isolation, emotional tension and human connection through a distinctly modern lens.
Raised in Wilp, a small town in the Netherlands, Brook Lynn grew up surrounded by silence, nature and isolation. Music became a private emotional outlet and a way to process feelings that were difficult to explain out loud. What began through stripped-back online performances evolved into a growing global audience drawn to her honesty and emotional depth.
For Brook Lynn, music is never just about being heard. It is about being understood.
