Billy Porter, a global queer powerhouse and visionary iconoclast, has released a new remix single called “Leap” ahead of his Black Mona Lisa UK Tour that kicks off on 18 October 2024
In a statement about the release, Porter expressed his desire to use his art to promote healing, citing music as the universal language. He emphasised the need for love and unity across all races, creeds, identities, and value structures.
The song is produced by longtime collaborator Lofey and written by the late legendary songwriter Andrea Martin. “Leap” embodies a classic R&B groove and memorable melody designed to inspire.
“Leap” is also available in two remix versions.
Last year, Billy Porter released his highly anticipated full-length album, BlackMona Lisa, which boasts the title track “Black Mona Lisa” and features fan-favorite singles “Baby Was A Dancer,” “Stranger Things,” “Fashion,” “Broke A Sweat,” and most recently released “Children (What Time It Is)” feat. Lady Blackbird. Listen to Black Mona Lisa— HERE.
