Magnifying the scope of her critically acclaimed debut album KIKI, platinum-selling Phoenix-born and Los Angeles-based artist Kiana Ledé unveils KIKI (Deluxe) today. She expands the original with seven brand new tracks, featuring a supporting cast of A-list guests.
Among the new songs, the single “Only Fan” feat. Jacquees drips with throwback R&B energy. On the track, lusty verses wrap around airy guitar and a steady beat. They lock into a steamy call-and-response as fiery falsetto from Jacquees flutters to a hypnotic climax. Elsewhere, Ari Lennox reup the fan favorite “Chocolate” with a delicious and dynamic LoFi Remix. Additionally, KIKI now boasts the bonus track “Youth” feat. Gary Clark, Jr.. The GRAMMY® Award-winning blues rock virtuoso delivers a head-bobbing riff and the perfect smooth vocal counterpoint to her dynamic delivery.
On these latest additions, Kiana exudes more seductiveness, soul and spirit than ever before.

The original album notably bowed in the Top 5 of the Billboard Top R&B Albums Chart, Top 5 of the Apple Music R&B/Soul Albums Chart, Top 5 of the iTunes R&B/Soul Albums Chart and Top 10 of the Apple Music Overall Albums Chart. It has impressively gathered over 50 million streams in addition to receiving tastemaker praise from ELLE, Billboard, Highsnobiety, Vibe and many more.
Just who is Kiana Ledé? On the one hand, you know her as a fierce and fiery force in R&B responsible for bangers such as the platinum-certified “EX,” “Mad At Me” and “Chocolate” feat.Ari Lennox and has received over 1 billion streams globally and praise from Complex, Vibe, Billboard, ROLLACOASTER Magazine and more. But, who is “KIKI,”
Long before all of this, the songstress “from South Phoenix with Black, Mexican, Native American, and White ancestry” grew up between divorced parents. She played classical instruments and competed in pageants—but popped wheelies on dirt bikes and got under the hood to fix a car or two. Eventually, an adventurous spirit carried her from Arizona to Los Angeles where TRACKLISTING:
