Today, Leigh-Anne shares a brand-new track ‘Forbidden Fruit’, the second lifted from an upcoming collection of songs, out now via Warner Records.
Leigh-Anne surrenders to the throes of lust and temptation on this sultry new track. With lyrics dripping with passion and a mesmerising reggae-infused beat, ‘Forbidden Fruit’ continues to perfectly showcase Leigh-Anne’s artistry and sonic direction as an artist. Produced by Albert Hype, and written by Leigh-Anne alongside J Kash and Nija, the track is the second to be lifted from an upcoming collection of songs. The track also arrives with a stunning dance visualiser ‘Forbidden Fruit (Chapter II)’, directed by Nathan James Tettey.
Talking about the track, Leigh-Anne explains: “I wrote ‘Forbidden Fruit’ at a writing camp in Miami, and it’s actually about how André and I met. This one gives me sweaty, sultry, reggae dance vibes. The way the beat drops makes me so excited to bring this one to the stage.”
‘Forbidden Fruit’ follows the heartfelt R&B cut ‘Stealin Love’, and part of an upcoming collection of songs Leigh-Anne created whilst working on her debut album. Speaking about this collection, Leigh-Anne said: “I’ve been writing & recording so much working on my album but while making it, I’ve made a collection of songs that fit together in their own world.” Next month Leigh-Anne plays an intimate headline show which sold out in seconds. This debut solo show will be one of the first chances for fans to hear Leigh-Anne’s new music live.
Last year Leigh-Anne released the garage-infused ‘Don’t Say Love’ and the Ayra Starr assisted ‘My Love’ as she continues to cement her rebirth as a solo artist.
As a solo artist, Leigh-Anne has quickly amassed over 60M global streams, earnt two UK top 40 singles and graced the cover of countless publications including Rolling Stone UK, Glamour and Tush. Experimenting with new sounds, ‘Don’t Say Love’ and ‘My Love’ have so far seen Leigh-Anne embrace genres such as Garage and Afrobeats. ‘Stealin Love’ showed a more raw and honest side of Leigh-Anne as she explored the darker sides to love, while ‘Forbidden Fruit’ is a passionate and sultry banger which sees Leigh-Anne surrendering to temptation. ‘Stealin Love’ and ‘Forbidden Fruit’ are the first taste of an upcoming collection of songs that perfectly showcases Leigh-Anne’s artistry and sonic direction as an artist.
