Grammy Award-winning vocalist and songwriter Ledisi officially releases her 14th studio album, The Crown, today via Listen Back Entertainment/BMG. The project showcases 11 tracks that explore the rich layers of Ledisi’s artistry, blending R&B, soul, gospel, dance, and feel-good grooves into a sonic experience that is both refreshing and timeless. It’s an album that lives in the pocket of joy, truth, and musical freedom, proving once again you can’t put Ledisi in a box.
With Ledisi at the helm as executive producer, The Crown features contributions from some of music’s most dynamic creators, including longtime collaborator Rex Rideout, Camper, Ray Keys, and Jacques “JOC” Pierre.
The album features the radiant single “Love You Too,” currently climbing the Billboard Top 15 on the R&B Radio charts, and the viral track “BLKWMN,” whose Tyler Perry–produced video has sparked overwhelming praise across social platforms.
Ledisi recently captivated millions with her performance of “Lift Every Voice and Sing” at Super Bowl LIX, where she opened the pre-game ceremony backed by 125 members of the New Orleans High School Choral Collective. Her stirring delivery brought the stadium and viewers worldwide to their feet, solidifying her place among the most resonant voices of this generation.
In addition to the new album, Ledisi is gearing up to hit the road for her highly anticipated “Love You Too Tour,” which will kick off May 28 in Baltimore, MD, with special guest Marsha Ambrosius. The tour will make stops in NewYork, DC, Chicago, St. Louis, Cleveland, Toronto, and more. She’ll also head overseas for a series of European tour dates this summer, with more surprises to come throughout 2025.
