New Social Media Singing Sensation Bri Releases Single 'I'll Be The One' & Reaches Top 5 on iTunes [VIDEO]
It's been a whirlwind week for social media singing sensation Bri. After months of Instagram fans begging for her to release an album, the 20-year old University of Louisiana student is teasing them with her debut single "I'll Be The One" (Marquis Boone Enterprises) that was released at midnight this past Tuesday.
The uplifting song of faith quickly raced up to #5 on the iTunes Christian/Gospel Top Songs chart and anchors her "I'll Be the One" EP that is also selling briskly.
Bri's lyric video is also now live, see below:
"All of this is very exciting and unexpected," says the Lafayette, LA singer who is also known as Briana Babineaux. "None of this was planned. A friend of mine put a tape of me singing a song on You Tube and then all of these incredible things began to happen and I'm humbled by all of them."
Among Bri's recent highlights are news that she'll be performing on BET's "Bobby Jones Gospel" program this fall and just yesterday she was summoned to the Louisiana state capital where she was honored by the Louisiana House of Representatives for her achievements as a student and rising star. Next weekend, she makes her first Big Apple concert appearance when she takes the stage at Milk River Restaurant in Brooklyn, NY on Sunday, June 14th @ 8 PM.
Fans can keep up with her at her Instagram page @simply_bebe- where she has over 300,000 followers or they can check in at www.brination.org.
