New Music: Letoya Luckett – “Back 2 Life”

LeToya Luckett is “Back.” Following a hiatus from music, the former Destiny’s Child songstress unleashes her new single, “Back 2 Life,” off her upcoming album Until Then.

Sampling Soul II Soul’s classic “Back to Life (However Do You Want Me),” LeToya sings about a failing relationship.

“Maybe we’ll survive,” she sings over an airy trap-inspired instrumental. “Maybe it’s a lie / To keep our love alive / But I know you want to ride / So, I gotta get back to life / Back to reality.”

While the muse for the track is unknown, it could be inspired by art imitating life. In August, it was revealed that the singer privately divorced her husband Rob Hillman after only two months of marriage.

In between working on her third album, Luckett can be seen on Fox’s drama series “Rosewood.” She is also set to play Dionne Warwick in a biopic based on her autobiography, My Life, As I See It.
