The song appears on her recent LP, What Now
Brittany Howard appeared on The Tonight Show to showcase her recent single, “Prove It to You.” Performing with a live band and two back-up singers, the singer emphasized the psychedelic vibe of the track with smoke and a hazy rainbow backdrop.
Howard released “Prove It to You” last month ahead of her new LP, What Now, which dropped last week. She described the single as “a fun four-on-the-floor dance track that makes you want to dance but at the same time lyrically looked at the complexities of being in a relationship.” She added, “I love those songs that might not be exactly what they appear to be on the surface.”
Howard produced “Prove It to You” alongside Shawn Everett, who also mixed, mastered, and engineered the singer’s debut solo release Jamie, which arrived in 2019. What Now marks her first since then. Ahead of the album, Howard also shared the singles “What Now” and “Red Flags.”
The musician told Rolling Stone that she has been “slowing down and appreciating the people I have around me more.” “I just follow my creativity,” Howard added. “It’s really that simple. If I get bored doing the solo stuff on my own, I’ll just do something else. But I’d like to get into metal next, probably. I’ve liked that since high school, but because the [Alabama] Shakes took off I never had a chance to get in there and do that.”
