Watch Lianne La Havas Deliver A Beautiful, Scaled-Back Rendition Of "Unstoppable"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Everything is going Lianne La Havas's way at the moment, and while she's feeling confident and capable amidst the release of her new LP Blood, it's actually we, the fans, who benefit most. Her latest offering is a new scaled-back live performance of her smash single "Unstoppable," in which we see the 25 year-old take up the electric guitar and deliver a spellbinding solo performance.

The video premiered over at The Daily Beast Wednesday and has La Havas leaning against a shaded window, gently crooning even as her fingers flicker across the strings. At time, her melodies fall into faint whispers, and at others they seem to cascade straight from her heart, bypassing breath itself. As she explained in a past interview, "Unstoppable" is all about La Havas lamenting a lost lover, noting that somehow, if it had all worked out, it would have lasted forever. Watch her new live performance of the track below and preorder Blood on iTunes before it drops July 31st.
