Libianca Unveils Debut EP “Walk Away” – A Soulful Journey of Resilience and Self-Discovery

Libianca, the talented Afro-R&B songwriter and vocalist, has made a powerful entrance onto the music scene with her debut EP, “Walk Away,” released through 5K Records/Sony Music UK/RCA Records. This 6-track project serves as a poignant exploration of life’s highs and lows, delving into themes of letting go, self-discovery, and resilience. Collaborating with artists like CHLÖE (formerly CHLOE BAILEY), OXLADE, MOLIY & BLAQBONEZ, Libianca’s EP is a testament to her musical prowess.

The project, written from her perspective and the experiences of the women around her, fearlessly tackles essential topics such as domestic abuse, mental health, loss, and the challenges of ending relationships that no longer contribute positively. “Walk Away” is an honest and unflinching account of Libianca’s most vulnerable moments, offering a reminder to find light in challenging times. Her soul-baring lyrics are complemented by Afrobeat-infused production that seamlessly combines R&B and Gospel influences.

Reflecting on her debut EP, Libianca shares, “Walk Away is baggage that I’ve been carrying for my whole life. I’m finally laying it all to rest and moving on the only way I know how; turning it into art. I feel lighter with this release.”

The EP includes previously released singles like “Jah” and the global hit “People,” which has accumulated over half a billion streams, 220M+ video views, and multiple platinum certifications. Recognized as the fifth biggest Afrobeats track in Spotify history, “People” catapulted Libianca to global acclaim.

Growing up immersed in Afrobeats, Makossa, Gospel, and R&B, Libianca’s musical journey was destined for greatness. With a mission to “heal the world” through vulnerability, empathy, and emotion in her music, Libianca has garnered a devoted fanbase appreciative of her honesty.

Despite her relatively short time in the spotlight, Libianca has already achieved significant milestones, including winning the 2023 BET AWARD for “BEST NEW INTERNATIONAL ACT,” supporting ALICIA KEYS on tour, and earning two 2023 BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARD NOMINATIONS for “TOP AFROBEATS ARTIST” and “TOP AFROBEATS SONG” (“PEOPLE”). As “Walk Away” resonates with audiences worldwide, it’s evident that Libianca’s ascent to greatness has only just begun.
