Clash Issue 133 - Leigh-Anne Cover B

Leigh-Anne is the third face of CLASH 133. 

Honouring Leigh-Anne’s history-making, independently-released debut solo album we present fans with the option of two different covers – a rare salute from CLASH to her indefatigable impact. See Leigh-Anne's Cover A alternate option HERE.

For over a decade, the 34-year-old singer-songwriter from High Wycombe was an integral part of one of the biggest girl groups to hit the world stage, Little Mix. Together, they garnered five number-one singles, three BRIT Awards, and over 50 million records sold across the globe. It’s a period that gave Leigh-Anne the platform to perform and express herself within a group dynamic, even if it occasionally stifled her individual quirks.

Years in the making, Leigh-Anne charts her breakaway with debut solo album ‘My Ego Told Me’; a burnished RnB-pop collection the singer has always wanted to create. Informed by her diasporic roots, Leigh-Anne, alongside her close collaborators, have created a cross-continental amalgam: sizzling Afrobeats-informed melodies, chest-thumping Amapiano lines, and robust reggae productions. 

For Leigh-Anne, this era is rooted in creative camaraderie, transparency and trust. Creating art away from the major label monopoly has meant reckoning with her past in order to forge her way forward. 

“I'm the happiest I've ever been,” she tells CLASH. “I guess that's just from being able to dictate my own life and my own career. I'm going to look back on this moment, my debut album, and know that I'd done it the way I wanted to do it.”
