Leki started at the age of twelve laying down vocals for Technotronic. At the time, her older sister Ya Kid K was the lead singer of Technotronic, whose songs include the global hit "Pump Up the Jam".
In October 2009 she released her fourth studio album, "Leki & The Sweet Mints" (Universal Music).
Leki is also sensitive to humanitarian projects in Africa where she is the godmother of a young farmers development activity in Uganda. Lately Leki decided to accomplish one of her father's dreams: the building of a hospital in his natal village of Malambu in Congo. Via Nanda, the non-profit-making organization she has founded, and under the name "Bouwen aan leven" ("building life") several initiatives - such as the single "Peculiar Places" - have been taken since 2010 to help raise funds, hoping that the hospital will be operational towards the end of 2013.[1] On 14 May 2012 she released "Get Over", the first single from her 2012 album The Journey.
