Grammy nominated singer and Verve recording artist Ledisi is excited to
announce the release of her fifth major studio
release The Truth. The album, which will be
in-stores February 11th, is filled not only with Ledisi’s
trademark soaring ballads but also a generous collection of up-tempo,
beat-driven celebrations of love and lust. The album is currently available for
pre-order at Amazon.com.
“With every
album I grow, and with The Truth I’ve gone to a new level.
It’s an extension of who I am and where I am in my life. Everything I am feeling
and experiencing is in this album and I am excited to share it with my fans,”
states Ledisi. “Of all of my recordings, this is definitely my favorite album
ever.”
The first
single off the new album “I Blame You,” written and produced by
Claude Kelly, Chuck Harmony and Ledisi Young (the team who brought you “Pieces
of Me”), is a joyful reflection on that new-found love. USA Today calls
it “A breezy-smooth rush of pop-soul nostalgia.”
In a few
short weeks since its release, the single has quickly climbed up the charts to
the top 20 on the Urban AC charts.
In addition
to the anticipation of her new album, Ledisi is featured among artists Patti
LaBelle, Jennifer Hudson, Kelly Rowland, Janelle Monae, and Alice Smith who will
be rocking the stage at the 2013 BLACK GIRLS ROCK! honoring Patti Labelle,
Queen Latifah, Mara Brock Akil, Venus Williams, Ameena Matthews, Misty Copeland,
and Marian Wright Edelman. Ledisi will be performing “I Blame You” for the first
time for fans on Sunday, November 3rd at 7p.m on
BET.
