"I’ve recently been focused on having a concrete intention before I start any project or track since it helps with adding new layers of depth and meaning rather than just working on something that sounds good," said crwn.

crwn said it was a breeze working with Leanne and Naara.

"I distinctly remember having them stack their vocals on top of one another until they sounded like a gospel choir for ‘Prayers.’ The recording, production process, as well as directing them in the vocal booth was cool and we had a lot of fun playing around with the arrangement. They hit it out of the park."

Building steady momentum since the release of their first album "Daybreak," Leanne and Naara continue to treat their fans to new music and videos.

Before the release of the remixed version of “Prayers,” Leanne and Naara took to Instagram and shared, "One of our favorites in "Daybreak" album is “Prayers” and so we thought a new spin won’t hurt." "Daybreak" was released in November last year and “Prayers” boasts almost 50,000 Spotify streams to date.

When asked about what they felt crwn brought to the remix, Leanne said, "We really love how crwn put his twist to it. We instantly agreed on the gospel vibe. He helped us with the vocal cuts as well. The song became even more laidback and more powerful at the same time."

"crwn gave a different vibe to the song. His version gave a gospel feel to it and we really had fun recording the ‘choir’ part towards the end of the song," said Naara.

crwn and Leanne and Naara's “Prayers” is now out on YouTube and other digital music platforms. For more updates about Leanne and Naara, you can keep tabs by following them on Instagram.
