Their song “Bougie Party” from their mixtape The Two of Us was featured on the soundtrack of Netflix's Dear White People, adding to their growing impact in both the music and entertainment worlds.

Now, as a solo artist, Halle continues to prove her versatility. Her debut solo single “Angel,” released in 2023, was met with critical acclaim and earned her a 2024 GRAMMY nomination for Best R&B Song. The release of her follow-up singles “In Your Hands” and “Because I Love You” further cemented her place as one of R&B’s brightest new stars. With her latest single, “Braveface,” Halle continues to evolve as an artist and captivates listeners with her powerful vocals and emotional depth.

Looking ahead, Halle is set to star alongside Regé-Jean Page in the upcoming romantic comedy You Me & Tuscany, from Universal Pictures.
