Let’s be clear — Raquel is not here to follow trends. She’s here to set them. Her new track “LA LA LA” featuring NLE Choppa feels like a breath of fresh, glitter-infused air in a scene overrun with carbon-copy club records.
Built on a clean, infectious beat from Anté O’Connor and GANGLAND, “LA LA LA” is a pop-dance hybrid that hits like a memory you’re still tipsy from. The concept is genius in its simplicity — a night told in numbers, where every hour counts and every moment lingers. Raquel turns the idea of “meeting me at 10” into a whole mood.
And then NLE Choppa enters, like a shot of dark tequila in the middle of a champagne party. He drops a verse that’s sultry but not overbearing — smooth without trying too hard. “Me and you a 1 of 1 / Tell me why you runnin’ from me?” he asks, blurring lines between club flirtation and genuine longing.
The Abstract Digital-directed visual is luxury chaos — Lambos in the Toronto night, glam shots, choreography that would make Paula Abdul proud, and fashion that pulls zero punches. Ioanna Al-Kayed’s direction gives it an edge, while Andrew Lovett’s lens captures the glamour in motion.
Raquel isn’t just experimenting — she’s expanding. “LA LA LA” is the kind of record that pushes the boundaries of pop and hip-hop while staying catchy enough to own every party playlist for months.
