Lava La Rue – STARFACE

Landing in the wake of the announcement of Lava La Rue’s eagerly awaited debut album, STARFACE, out this Summer 2024 via Dirty Hit.

Lava La Rue’s new single “Humanity” is their most vulnerable offering yet.

Following a very literal experience of losing a friendship to addiction, the song is also steeped in positivity; reframing a difficult time with sentiments of hope – a reminder not to give up on humanity, even when you feel humanity has given up on you. “Humanity” arrives after the incredible “Push N Shuv” – a culmination of Lava La Rue’s remarkable journey, marked by a fusion of genres, unapologetic self-expression, and a unique sonic identity.  

“This might be the most vulnerable I’ve ever been on a song. The verses follow a very literal experience about losing a friendship to addiction, but every time the chorus hits, it evolves into a response/reminder to not give up on humanity even when you feel like humanity has given up on you. 

It’s about cherishing the everyday moments/connections that let you know that there is just as much light as there is dark…and using those moments to restore your energy so you have the will to keep fighting for what you believe in. 

The most radical thing we can do right now is to keep giving a fuck. To keep pointing out all the good stuff amongst the bad. People on both sides try and make us feel futile by preaching about peace and love but if we don’t – who will? I guarantee the hope that “things can get better – how can I make this happen” will get us further that “it’s all fucked” The most radical thing is to keep loving.”
