LeToya Luckett is planning a triumphant return to her musical roots with her upcoming third studio album, ‘Until Then’ (release date unknown), but until it is released, LeToya’s got fans amped for her return with her latest single ‘Back 2 Life.’
To prove she’s serious about this comeback, the former Destiny’s child recently released an 8 minute ‘mini-movie’ featuring former NFL star turnt actor, Thomas Q. Jones (best known as ‘Cutty Buddy’ from Being Mary Jane).
The song features a familiar hook from Soul II Soul’s classic, ‘Back to life’ and the mini movie is quite relatable as, Luckett touches on a familiar relationship theme… the boyfriend who’s cheating with his female ‘best friend’.
