Leigh-Anne – releases the music video for latest single Dead and Gone

Leigh-Anne releases the music video for latest single Dead and Gone, taken from debut album My Ego Told Me To, out February 20th 2026.

Written by Leigh-Anne and Clarence “Coffee” Jr., and produced by Mr Cutts, Dead and Gone, sees Leigh-Anne fuse reggae and pop as she stands over the grave of her former self declaring: “She’s dead, she’s gone.” Directed by Franck Trozzo Kazagui, the official video becomes the stage for a visceral confrontation between two sides of Leigh-Anne. Speaking on the track Leigh-Anne says “Dead and Gone is about letting go of the version of myself that played it safe for too long, the version that cared too much for what other people think. Killing off the old me so I can make room for the freer, fiercer and more honest version of myself. Dead and Gone is bold, raw and unapologetic. The sound of me truly stepping into my power.”

Breaking free from expectation and playing by no one’s rules but her own, Leigh-Anne’s debut album is a bold and unapologetic expression of freedom. Written by Leigh-Anne alongside Written by Leigh-Anne alongside the likes of Clarence “Coffee” Jr. (Dua Lipa, Beyoncé), Owen Cutts (Stormzy, Greentea Peng), Khris Riddick (SZA, Kehlani, Odeal), Fred Ball (Rihanna, Jessie Reyez), and rooted in her vibrant Caribbean heritage, the record sonically blends pop, R&B, dancehall, and reggae into a powerful celebration of identity. Unfiltered and uncompromised, it captures an artist letting go of who she once was to become who she truly is – fearless, honest, and finally in control. ‘Dead and Gone’ will feature on the album alongside recent singles ‘Been A Minute’ and ‘Burning Up’. Tracklist to be revealed.
 
Leigh-Anne on My Ego Told Me To: “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. 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.”
