“Stay Here”
Bri Babineaux
From the Tyscot album Briana (album release date: May 22, 2026)
By Robert M. Marovich
From Bri Babineaux’s latest album, titled simply Briana, the melodic ballad “Stay Here” finds the singer showcasing a mature sound, one that can very well sustain her career through the musical fads that pass in and out of the gospel music continuum.
While the song is as restful and soothing as the message it delivers, Bri raises the vocal temperature towards the end with some old-fashioned shouting designed to rouse a church congregation to its feet.
