On that day, Halle revealed in a Twitter post that she plans to drop her new single “Angel” by using a compilation video highlighting the star’s humble beginnings and rise to fame. In addition to the clip, the Grown-ish star also informed her fans that they could pre-order the track days before its scheduled release by clicking the link in her bio.
Following Halle’s upload, it has generated over 38,000 likes and has been retweeted over 10,000 times. In addition to the viral post, many of Halle’s fans couldn’t contain their excitement regarding her new project.
One Twitter user shared an animated clip to showcase how surprised they were by Halle’s news.

A third social media user shared how happy they were to see that the visuals for “Angel” was coming soon.
Lastly, another individual reassured Halle that they and other fans plan to stream “Angel” when it’s released.
Halle’s music announcement comes days after the “Do It” vocalist had fans sign up for her social media updates via “Halle Happy Place” as they awaited a surprise. At the time, Halle didn’t share any details regarding what the surprise may be, many guessed online that it was a new song or the possible release of her debut solo album.
