Hailee Steinfeld Releases Her First Single: Listen to the Empowering Track!

Ideal pitch! Hailee Steinfeld made her debut as a bona fide recording artist on Friday, August 7, releasing her first solo studio single.

While “Love Myself” is clearly designed as pop fun complete with an echoing chorus of people screaming “hey”, Steinfeld has a richer, less-produced side to her voice as well.

Fans first heard Hailee’s vocal talents in Pitch ideal 2, in which she portrayed a collegiate member of the Barden Bella acapella group. Featuring tinkling piano and a vibrant club beat, the track sees the Academy Award nominee display her soaring anthemic chops, akin to hits from Katy Perry (Roar) and Kelly Clarkson (Stronger, Since U Been Gone).

No, I don’t need anybody else. It is ultimately about taking care of and indulging yourself.

The actress-turned-singer says she’s always felt connected to music and knew it would be part of her future career. “Making music has always been something I wanted to do, it’s really only been a matter of when”.

She also dueted with Shawn Mendes on an acoustic cover of his single “Stitches”.

And y’all are feeling the Pitch flawless 2 star’s tune. “I’ve made time and I’ve fallen in love with the whole process”.
