American singer and actress Vanessa Williams returned with a new song “Legs (Keep Dancing)” on April 26, 2024.
The song is her first music in 15 years since the 2009 album “The Real Thing”.
The track was written by Chantry Grant Johnson, Kevin Todd Jones, and Kjersti Samantha Long. Produced by Chantry Johnson, kipper jones.
The accompanying music video was directed by Mike Ruiz
The song's title was inspired by the late actress Dearhan Carroll's 2008 memoir, “The Legs Are The Last To Go”.
Vanessa Williams said, “Diahann played my mother in a movie I produced, The Courage to Love, and has always been a huge inspiration for me. I remember seeing her talking to Oprah about her autobiography. She spoke so beautifully and confidently about her age and power and the fact that beauty fades but your legs give you strength and are the last to go.”- The song is the first release under her own recording label, Mellian Music.
She said, “What a joy it is to be making new music behind the mike again with old friends. There’s a certain comfort in creating new works in the studio while reminiscing about how so many years in this business have brought successes, excitement, and lasting memories. Always moving forward is what drives me. Every challenge is exciting. And more new music to share with my fans is the fuel that lights my fire.” -
