Burning Up Lyrics – Leigh-Anne | from “My Ego Told Me To”

Thematically, it’s desire dialed to eleven: that irresistible pull of someone who “electrifies” you, matching your vibe while cracking open your guarded edges. Lines like “You be the flame and I’ll be the lighter” capture the thrill of running headfirst into the fire, chasing love that frees you up and sets you ablaze. It’s unapologetic romance with a spiritual twist—inner peace wrapped in temptation—proving she’s not just singing about heat, but owning it. Fans flooded her Insta after the release, remixing those chorus hooks into TikTok thirst traps that racked up millions, with the visualizer’s hazy, flame-kissed aesthetics sealing the vibe.

The album? It’s her full-throated debut after years of teasing, a 15-track deep dive into ego’s wild whispers—bold, raw, and fiercely personal, born from two years of late-night writes and studio marathons. Tracks like the brooding “Dead and Gone” (her June single with that Clarence Coffee Jr. polish), the reflective “Been a Minute,” and January’s like “Most Wanted” ft. Valiant promise a mosaic of heartbreak, hustle, and hedonism. No rigid blueprint, just Leigh-Anne unpacking the post-fame glow-up: from group dynamics to solo swagger, with live strings and guest spots adding that lush, lived-in depth. Recorded between London and LA, it’s her reclaiming the narrative—ego as both villain and guide—stacking bangers that feel like therapy sessions turned dancefloor confessions.

She’s storming into 2026 on a roll, fresh off sold-out warm-ups for her April Ego Tour (eight UK dates already buzzing) and that BRITs nod last year for “Don’t Say Love.” The Little Mix alum who fought industry biases is now the architect of her empire, trading harmonies for headlines—it’s Leigh-Anne at her most liberated, mic as mirror, ready to light up stages and playlists alike.
