Leigh-Anne stepped further into her power today (January 16) with the unveiling of her latest single “Most Wanted”a release that feels less like a statement of intent and more like a confident continuation of a journey she has quietly and deliberately made.
Unapologetic in both its message and tone, the uber hard track sees that “Dead and Gone” singer reunites with Jamaican super producer RVSSIAN (Vybz Karetel, Konshshen, KtarrrR .) after last year’s standalone track “Friends”and Jamaican artist Bravewhose vocals seductively trade back and forth with Leigh’s over the song’s infectious siren-led production.
Infused with high-octane dancehall rhythms and sultry pop melodies, the single serves as the latest offering from the much-loved stars’ upcoming debut album “My ego told me”out on February 20, 2026.
“‘Most Wanted’ began as a song written by Unideal which was sent to me and from there RVSSIAN and I got together and worked on it and made it my own,” Leigh-Anne explains of the origins of the heady tracks.Brave felt like the perfect collaboration for the song, he adds that undeniable Jamaican power and energy that takes the song to another level.”
“This song represents everything I’m inspired by right now and what this entire era has been about. I love making music that empowers women to feel their most beautiful, confident and unpredictable selves. “Most Wanted” is about owning your presence, your power and your desirability. I want everyone who listens to tap into the most desired energy and feel unstoppable.”

Since launching her solo career, Leigh-Anne has proven she’s not interested in playing it safe or leaning into expectations – each release sharpens her voice, her vision and her sense of self as an artist unafraid to take her place on her own terms.
With “Most Wanted”she continues to blaze a trail defined by autonomy and evolution, forging her own path rather than following a worn one. It’s the sound of an artist on the move – confident, exploratory and completely in control – marking another bold step forward in a solo journey that’s increasingly impossible to ignore.
The release of “Most Wanted” comes just weeks before the release of Leigh-Anne’s hotly anticipated solo album “My ego told me”.
Created in collaboration with a team of A-List collaborators, incl Chris Riddick (SZA, Kehlani, Odeal), Fred Ball (Rihanna, Jessie Reyes)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 uncompromising, “My ego told me” undoubtedly captures an artist letting go of who she once was, to become who she really is – fearless, honest and ultimately in control. The LP is available to pre-order NOW!
To celebrate the project’s release, Leigh-Anne will embark on a UK Record Store tour, which will include intimate performances in Edinburgh, Liverpool, Leeds, London, Nottingham and Kingston Upon Thames. Full dates are below and tickets can be purchased here.
