TAWANDA CHARI
On her latest single Can’t Stop, Hanna delivers a powerful blend of upbeat pop, R&B and house-infused grooves wrapped in deeply introspective lyricism that feels personal and universally resonant. The song is an anthem for anyone who’s ever been told how to live, only to realize that true fulfillment lies in carving your own path.
Right from the jump, Can’t Stop feels like a sonic uplift. The shimmering production and pulsing beat contrast with the raw honesty in Hanna’s words. She lays bare the internal tug of war between societal expectations and personal purpose. There’s a quiet rebellion in her voice, but it’s not loud or angry, it’s hopeful, determined.
“It’s kinda deceiving, don’t you think?” she questions, as though pulling back the curtain on all the half truths we’re fed about success and happiness. The track captures that moment of awakening, when you’ve done everything “they” said you should, only to realize the dream wasn’t yours to begin with.
But Can’t Stop isn’t about bitterness. It’s about believing, and Hanna makes that clear in lines like: “I just gotta believe it’s on the way,” and the hauntingly vulnerable: “I can’t stop until I know the truth—will I fly or will I die with you?” It’s the kind of songwriting that inspires and reflects.
There’s something deeply empowering about the way Hanna turns her journey into a groove you can dance to. “Just don’t stop dreaming,” she urges and the message is crystal. The song is a declaration. A call to those navigating the chaos of external voices to hold steady to the compass within.
