(September 29, 2017) His smile made you weak, his touch felt like an electrical current and you swore you saw your future in his eyes. But then came broken promises, the messy ex and that tricky relationship status he listed in social media. So you curved him. Now, months after you've exited, here he comes sliding in the DMs and voicemail, 'checking on you' and hoping you'll take him back. NOT. One-sided love is no love at all and you're ready for the real thing, which is what Lesha sings about in the 'be gone' mantra, "Balance."
The product of a NC native gifted with a voice that's earned her many a collaboration and a background vocalist spot with NC neighbor and 'sanger' Fantasia, "Balance" spins the narrative of a once-devoted girlfriend who will no longer tolerate the madness and sees his ruse for what is ...a ploy to make her wonder 'what if' and take him back; "You just tryin' to get me off balance......Even though you took me for granted, I still let you have it.....you ain't slick boy." Sweetly delivered, with a seething undercurrent, "Balance" is the first single from her full-length release, Naked, and reveals (pun intended) Lesha's worthy talents, whetting the appetite to hear where else her artistry could transport us next.
