Grammy Award-winning artist Ledisi has made 2024 a year to remember, showcasing her talent, resilience, and impact in every corner of her career. This year, Ledisi solidified her place as one of the most compelling and versatile voices in music while continuing to inspire fans around the world.

In an exciting announcement, the NFL and Roc Nation revealed that Ledisi will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing” at the 2025 Super Bowl in her hometown of New Orleans. This monumental moment celebrates her extraordinary artistry and deep connection to a city known for its rich musical legacy. As a proud New Orleans native, this performance will spotlight her incredible talent and honor the cultural heartbeat of her beloved hometown on one of the world’s biggest stages.

This announcement caps off a year of milestones. Earlier in 2024, Ledisi released her 11th studio album, Good Life, an inspiring exploration of joy, purpose, and self-discovery. She brought the album to life with “The Good Life Tour,” performing to packed venues across the country and leaving audiences in awe of her soulful voice and undeniable presence.

Ledisi also celebrated her hit single “Pieces of Me” being certified Gold by the RIAA, a testament to her enduring legacy in contemporary R&B. Another career-defining moment came when she received an honorary Doctorate from Berklee College of Music, recognizing her contributions to the arts and her continued dedication to uplifting the next generation of musicians.

Adding to her accolades, Ledisi was honored as one of The Root 100, a list of the most influential African Americans in arts and entertainment. Her performance at the ceremony, held last night at the Apollo Theater, demonstrated why she remains a standout talent in the industry.

On the fashion front, Ledisi graced her first major fashion cover for L’Officiel Monaco with a feature titled “A Journey of Passion, Purpose, and Power.” The story highlighted her journey of self-expression and evolving style, showcasing yet another dimension of her artistic identity.

Ledisi is ending the year on a high note with two fresh takes on her music that showcase her incredible range. Her single “Perfect Strangers,” currently sitting at #13 on Mediabase’s Adult R&B chart, gets an R&B remix featuring a smooth sample of Tyrone Davis’ classic “In the Mood.” On the other hand, “Like It Was” takes a bold turn with a dance remix crafted by the legendary Terry Hunter, who transforms the sultry ballad into a vibrant, high-energy anthem. These remixes highlight Ledisi’s versatility and ability to cross musical boundaries effortlessly.

Reflecting on her remarkable year, Ledisi says, “This year has been filled with so many blessings. From sharing my music and receiving incredible honors to representing my city on the world stage, I’m humbled by it all. I’m looking forward to what’s next and can’t wait to keep creating and connecting with my fans.”

As she prepares to kick off 2025 with new music and a forthcoming project, Ledisi’s star continues to rise. With her blend of artistry, authenticity, and soul, she remains a true force in the music world and beyond.
