Laila El Khalifi (Arabic: ليلى الخليفي; born 6 September 1971) better known by her stage name Leila K, is a Swedish Eurodance singer and rapper of Moroccan descent.

The record company decided to help her financially by releasing a compilation album titled Leila K's Greatest Tracks.
In 2005, the Swedish cartoonist Martin Kellerman conducted an interview with Leila K for his own comic book magazine, Rocky.
In June 2007, Swedish media reported[2] that she turned up as a surprise guest at a release party for the book Bögjävlar, performing the songs "Ça Plane Pour Moi" and "Electric".
