Leigh-Anne’s “Been A Minute” Launches a Bold New Chapter


“Been A Minute” by Leigh-Anne blends dancehall with bold visuals in her first release of 2025.
With the arrival of “Been A Minute,” singer and songwriter Leigh-Anne marks her official return to music. Released via Virgin Music Group, the single celebrates rhythm, culture, and creative transformation.
Co-produced by Elijah “GYW Eli” Ross and Lasse Qvist, and sampling Masters at Work’s “Work,” the track balances modern production with a familiar, nostalgic touch. Leigh-Anne co-writes and delivers a smooth vocal that captures both confidence and homage.
The video, directed by Femi Lade, features Leigh-Anne leading a vibrant carnival sequence before being overtaken by a mysterious figure—highlighting shifts in power, identity, and self-expression.
In Leigh-Anne’s words:
“There’s something powerful about sampling a song that shaped me growing up… ‘Been a Minute’ is fun, nostalgic, and the first taste of this new era…”
Following the 2024 release of ‘No Hard Feelings’, which blended R&B with Caribbean influences, “Been A Minute” builds on that legacy while signaling what’s next. Her debut solo tour further reinforced her rising momentum.
Looking ahead, Leigh-Anne is scheduled to perform at Reading and Leeds, Manchester Pride, and Mighty Hoopla Malta, setting the stage for a dynamic year ahead.
