The city of Detroit has birthed some of the most acclaimed musical moments and artist of our time.  From Eminem to Big Sean,  to the legendary Mo-Town Records, the motor city has a brought a zest to the music game that has yet to be duplicated. Which brings us to the D’s next rising star, La’Britney.  The budding songstress became popular for her “LaMix” videos which have garnered the attention from big dogs in the music industry and built a loyal fan base and following of over 150K that steadily continues to grow daily.

The singer recently teamed up with another Detroit native, Kash Doll, on her latest single  “Acting Funny,”  becoming one of her most popular single releases to date.

Though her ambition to win qualifies her to be a Bombshell, La’Britney has taken her platform to another level as an activist for teenage and single mothers by creating the movement ‘When Beauty Meets Brain’.  Following her dreams has led her to her purpose of empowering young women like herself.  For the rising star, leading by example is imperative, living by the mantra:  “Impossible” equals “I’m Possible.”

As long as I can remember music has always touched me and evoked certain emotions within me. My parents and grandparents are very musically inclined, so it’s in my genes.

Songs that I sing make me wanna dance and move my body. It’s like a chain reaction.

How did the start of #lamixes come about, being that they play a big role in your career?

I’ve always loved to sing in harmony and beatbox. So when I found an iPhone app that allowed me to make a video of me signing, beatboxing and dancing all in one I just went crazy with it.

How did you and Kash Doll come together to collaborate on “Acting Funny”?

Kash Doll and I have known each other for a few years both being independent local Detroit artists. We’ve always supported each other. So after I recorded Actin Funny I just sent it to her like- I know you’ll murder this and that’s exactly what she did.
