New Video: Ledisi - "BLKWMN" (Directed by Tyler Perry)

Grammy Award-winning artist Ledisi continues her reign as a voice for empowerment with the release of her latest single, "BLKWMN," available on all digital platforms.

Written and produced by Ledisi and Joc Musiq, this anthem is a soul-stirring tribute to the resilience, integrity, and unwavering strength of Black women.

The visually stunning video, produced by Tyler Perry and Kyle Johnson, debuted on Ledisi’s social platforms leading up to her acclaimed Super Bowl LIX performance (click here), featuring iconic imagery of trailblazing Black women throughout history, from Harriet Tubman, Coretta Scott King, and Maya Angelou, to modern-day icons like Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, and Angela Bassett. 

The tribute also includes powerful snapshots of Tracy Ellis Ross, Octavia Spencer, Lynn Whitfield, and more, celebrating the contributions of Black women across generations. The song and video have sparked an outpouring of praise and admiration across social media, with countless voices celebrating its powerful message and stunning visuals.

“BLKWMN is more than just a song—it’s an anthem. It’s about honoring the brilliance, power, and perseverance that Black women embody every single day. From our history to our present, we’re still standing tall, creating, leading, and shaping the world.” -Ledisi

The single precedes the release of Ledisi’s upcoming album, The Crown, which will drop this spring. The album also features her sultry, fan-favorite single, "Love You Too" (click here), which is quickly climbing the charts and solidifying its place as a standout track.

Fans can also experience the song live during her upcoming "Love You Too Tour," kicking off May 28 in Baltimore, MD, with special guest Marsha Ambrosius.


In addition, Ledisi will take the stage at the prestigious NAACP Image Awards on February 22, where she will perform as part of the evening’s celebration of Black excellence.
