Artist Spotlight

Paris-born and based singer, producer, and songwriter Léonie Barbot is carving out her own space in contemporary R&B and soul with a sound that blends deep, emotive vocals with modern production. First gaining attention in 2020 with her debut single “Fingers Crossed,” which has now surpassed 15 million streams across platforms, Léonie has continued to build momentum with releases like “Stranger,” “2HOT2ARGUE,” and her 2025 EP, Shut up u’ll be fine !!!!.


Her growing reputation has earned co-signs from Kehlani, Mahalia, and Tommy Richman, while her work recently appeared on Brent Faiyaz’s latest album, where she wrote, arranged, and performed background vocals on “Wrong Faces.”


Léonie’s latest project, from me to me, made with producer ESTA., is a deeply personal House/R&B EP exploring healing, resilience, and self-acceptance. Written as letters to her younger self, the project pairs uplifting, dance-driven production with the vulnerability and emotional depth that define her sound. Focus track “why can’t u n i b friends?” received major editorial support, reaching more than 3 million people across editorial playlists, alongside airplay on New York’s Power 105.1.


With her distinctive sound, powerful presence, and growing creative momentum, Léonie Barbot continues to establish herself as a standout voice in contemporary R&B. Her ability to blend vulnerability with rich, dance-driven production makes her an artist worth keeping an eye on as she continues to evolve.
