The infectious lead single "Complicated" has percolated through radio stations around the country with airplay in major markets like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, New Orleans, Nashville, Detroit, Denver, and many more. "Complicated"showcases James' distinctive, raw vocal style and showcases her catchy and emotive lyrical storytelling. The single holds firm on the Billboard and Mediabase Top 10 approaching Top 5 on the R&B Airplay charts. Leela also released singles "Put It On Me" and "You're The One" to great fanfare.
Earlier this summer, the powerhouse R&B singer/songwriter delivered an emotional vocal performance during the nationally televised George Floyd Commemorative Concert with a rendition of the title track "See Me," an anthem for anyone who has been overlooked or feels they don't matter. The song served as a fitting tribute to Mr. Floyd and all the black men and women who lost their lives to senseless brutality.
Leela is now preparing to hit the road and connect with the fans hitting the road with Chaka Khan, The Isley Brothers, Gregory Porter, and Tamar Braxton.
