Halle Bailey Releases New Single “Back and Forth”

American Grammy-nominated singer and leading actress of Disney’s live-action adaptation of “The Little Mermaid,” Halle Bailey has officially released her latest single, “Back and Forth,” on Valentine’s Day, along with a riveting visualizer on YouTube. The song, which has already captivated fans and netizens, explores love’s different layers and complexities.

This release follows years of Halle teasing the song, and fans have been on her neck to release it. However, Halle had other plans, and now we understand why it took such a long period of time for the song to drop; she was waiting for the perfect time, Valentine’s Day.

“Back and Forth” is a slow, soulful, and contemporary R&B record that demonstrates Halle’s vocal and lyrical prowess. The song’s lyrics center around the push and pull of romantic involvements and the desire of a young lover to experience love that does not hurt. The track was skillfully produced by Needlz and comes with a stunning visualizer that represents the song’s theme.

Halle Bailey began her solo career in August 2023 with the release of her debut single, “Angel.” Since the release of that powerful black girl anthem, Halle has released a few other fan favourites and featured on a number of tracks. Halle had quite an epic 2024, from performing on various stages, working and collaborating with amazing artists and producers to taking on the role of a new mum. 2025 is already looking blissful for Halle with the release of this new one.

With “Back and Forth” adding to Halle’s growing discography, fans expect a full-length solo album soon. The music genius teased her debut album a few times on X and public platforms, so it is no surprise that fans are amped up for this album. We are confident the album will captivate listeners and solidify Halle even more as a star-rated vocalist and a phenomenal musician.

With Halle setting the stage with “Back and Forth,” 2025 promises to be an exciting year for Halle and her fans, and we love to see it. As Halle continues to navigate her personal life and musical career, her music continues to be a powerful source of inspiration and solace to her listeners. Listen to “Back and Forth” on every music streaming platform and enjoy this masterpiece.
