Grammy Award-winning artist Ledisi continues her reign as a voice for empowerment with the release of her latest single, "BLKWMN," available on all digital platforms. Written and produced by Ledisi and Joc Musiq, this anthem is a soul-stirring tribute to the resilience, integrity, and unwavering strength of Black women.
“BLKWMN is more than just a song—it’s an anthem,” says Ledisi. “It’s about honoring the brilliance, power, and perseverance that Black women embody every single day. From our history to our present, we’re still standing tall, creating, leading, and shaping the world.”
This past Saturday, Ledisi delivered a soul-stirring performance at the "56th NAACP Image Awards," transforming the stage into a powerful tribute to the victims of the recent LA fires in Altadena. Honoring those who lost their homes and lives, she captivated the audience with moving renditions of "Wholy, Holy" and "How I Got Over," turning the moment into one of unity, resilience, and remembrance. Her powerhouse vocals and magnetic stage presence ignited the crowd, bringing them to their feet in celebration. Once again, Ledisi proved why she remains one of the most compelling voices of her generation.
"BLKWMN" precedes the release of Ledisi’s upcoming album, The Crown, which will drop this spring. The album also features her sultry, fan-favorite single, "Love You Too" (click here), which is quickly climbing the charts and solidifying its place as a standout track.
Fans can also experience the song live during her upcoming "Love You Too Tour," kicking off May 28 in Baltimore, MD, with special guest Marsha Ambrosius.
