Rising star Liv Hanna closes out the month of August with a new single, “Proud of Yourself.” “Proud of Yourself” is sonically and thematically different from her previous record, “TEASE ME.” AWAL’s Liv Hanna goes back to her roots and the type of sound that her fans are accustomed to hearing. “Proud of Yourself” is a piano-driven ballad that teeters between Alt-Pop, Dark Pop, Indie Pop, and Pop Rock.
“Proud of Yourself” is akin to an oxymoron as the title suggests a positive theme. However, Liv Hanna cleverly uses the phrase in an ironic manner. The track is about having someone in one’s life who is self-absorbed and dismissive. “‘Proud of Yourself’ is about having a person in your life that doesn’t truly listen to you or understand where you are coming from and always makes things about them.” Liv Hanna continues, “They can say that they are proud of you or give you some attention, but it isn’t genuine because they are only really proud of themselves.”
