When G20 dropped on Prime Video, all eyes were on Viola Davis as she took command of a high-stakes political thriller — but once the credits rolled, another voice took center stage: Asiahn. Her song “Higher” plays during the film’s emotional outro, and it’s already becoming one of the most talked-about moments of the entire experience.
Higher by Asiahn isn’t just a song — it’s a statement. A soulful, powerful, vocally rich track that bridges the story’s end with a message of resilience and healing. Backed by the emotionally intense finale of G20, the song becomes an anthem for rising through adversity, echoing the journey of Davis’ character, President Danielle Sutton, who must fight for her family, country, and herself when the G20 summit falls under attack.
A Soundtrack That Hits Hard — With Purpose
G20, directed by Patricia Riggen, combines action, political suspense, and emotional grit — and the soundtrack mirrors that tone. Lakeshore Records released the full album on April 11, composed by Joseph Trapanese, known for his work on Oblivion, The Witcher, Straight Outta Compton, and The Greatest Showman.
But it’s “Higher” that closes the film on a deeply personal note. The production is soulful yet minimal, giving Asiahn’s voice the space it deserves to soar. There’s pain in her delivery, but also pride. There’s grief, but there’s also growth. It’s the kind of performance that doesn’t just end the movie — it lingers with you.
Who Is Asiahn (Asia Bryant)?
Asia Bryant, professionally known as Asiahn, is no stranger to the music scene. Her resume includes songwriting credits for Jennifer Lopez, Miley Cyrus, and collaborations with Dr. Dre (Compton, “Just Another Day”). But “Higher” showcases her as a solo force — a woman with a voice that commands attention and emotion.
Asiahn’s genre-blending career spans R&B, pop, and hip-hop, with her solo projects often delivering deeply personal storytelling. Her vocal control, tone, and phrasing have drawn comparisons to some of the greats, and “Higher” is a shining example of her ability to convey layered emotion through music.
Social Buzz & Fan Reactions
Fans across social media have been raving about the end credits track:
- “I was ready to turn the movie off… then THAT song came on. Stayed for the whole credits. Who is this singer??”
- “Asiahn really gave us a spiritual send-off after Viola’s performance. Whew.”
- “G20 is great, but Higher made me cry. This song needs to be on all playlists immediately.”
Whether you’re watching for the action or the artistry, this is a reminder of the impact Black women continue to have — both on-screen and behind the mic.
Why “Higher” Is the Perfect Ending
Thematically, Higher ties directly into the film’s arc. After a violent, emotionally taxing journey, President Sutton survives. But survival isn’t the end — it’s a beginning. “Higher” invites viewers to reflect on what it takes to rise above trauma, to hold onto hope, and to keep moving forward.
Asiahn delivers that message with grace and fire. And by doing so, she secures her spot not only on the soundtrack, but in the emotional memory of G20 itself.
