The album, which will be her first outside of Little Mix, will be released on February 20, and is available to pre-order here.
A new single, ‘Dead And Gone,’ will come out this Friday (October 17), following on from ‘Been A Minute‘ and ‘Burning Up’, the latter of which came out back in August and drew inspiration from her Caribbean heritage.
Speaking about the album, Leigh-Anne said: “This album is the truest representation of me as an artist. Versatile, rooted in reggae and my heritage, but stamped with pop. It’s personal and impossible to box in.
“I wanted it to feel authentic, blending the genres I love with a sound that’s distinctly mine. It’s also a statement: standing by my art and doing it my way,” she continued. “These are songs I’ll be proud of in five, ten years, because they reflect exactly where I was.
“You’ll hear my world in it, my daughters, my marriage, my fight for power, and the moment I embraced my fire side and said: no more. This is my show now.”
Alongside news of her album, Leigh-Anne has also announced the ‘My Ego Told Me To Tour’, which will include dates in the UK, Ireland and Europe.

During an interview with NME at Reading Festival this year, the singer talked about how she is entering a “new era” as an independent artist, and revealed that her new album is “nearly done”.
“It’s so, so close, and I’m already so happy that I can actually say that! It’s everything that I wanted it to be. It’s the mix of the sounds that I love, paired with my Leigh-Anne pop stamp,” she said.
“That’s something that I’ve always wanted; to find the balance of Leigh-Anne, the pop star, but also the musical genres that I love. Whether it be reggae or R&B – it’s about merging that and putting my stamp on it.”
