In October 2021, LeahAnn "Lafemmebear" Mitchell became the first Black trans woman to produce a record on a Top Ten charting album with "I'm a Survivor (Lafemmebear Remix)" on Reba's REVIVED, REMIXED, REVISITED. Lafemmebear's first full album, "Blaq: the Story of Me," premiered Fall 2019 and is available on all platforms. She co-composed and sound designed the original score for Alice Sheppard and Kinetic Light’s new work Wired, which will premiere at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago in 2022. In 2020 she collaborated with PEG Records, Cody Belew, and Dustin Ransom to co-write and produce the first mainstream Pop-R&B single “What You’re Looking For” for Rupaul’s Drag Race’s Peppermint. She and Peppermint later collaborated with Mila Jam in a remake of Sounds of Blackness' "Optimistic," an anthem for Trans Day of Remembrance 2020. In February 2021 she opened for Chika at Stanford University’s Black Love concert, premiering songs from her new EP titled "My Blaq Feels."
