Leigh-Anne Pinnock is on a roll. The British pop star’s latest single, “Dead and Gone,” has been voted Best New Release of the Week in our weekly fan poll on X (formerly Twitter), securing 36% of the votes. The song edged out Charlie Puth’s “Changes” (30%), Tame Impala’s “Deadbeat” (20%), and Ty Dolla $ign’s “Tycoon” (14%).
This marks the second time this year that Leigh-Anne has topped our weekly poll. Back in July, her first independent single “Been a Minute” dominated with a commanding 83% of votes.

Released on October 17, “Dead and Gone” serves as the third single from Leigh-Anne’s upcoming debut solo album, My Ego Told Me To, set for release in early 2026. The track is a raw and unapologetic anthem about transformation and self-liberation — a declaration that the old version of herself is “dead and gone.” The single follows “Been a Minute” and “Burning Up,” continuing a confident streak that highlights her Caribbean roots and sharp creative vision.
This week’s poll featured an impressive lineup across genres. Tame Impala’s new album Deadbeat introduced a rave-inspired soundscape that marks a creative shift for the psychedelic icon. Charlie Puth’s “Changes” offered a polished, retro-pop sound, co-produced by BloodPop and paired with a charming music video revealing his first child on the way. Meanwhile, Ty Dolla $ign returned with Tycoon, his first solo album in years.
