Personally I'm into smooth, subtle tracks especially in the evenings coming in from a long day at work.
Corinne Bailey Rae has come from bottom rising to the top, with a great start to the year 2006 with "Put your records on" and MoBo award winner, she's now proving what it takes to be a star. Her songs deliver a voice that pins you and relaxes you into her imaginative abyss. With sophisticated song writing I'm really going to support her music because she deserves the attention. Why? Because she is a British artist and she has been in the game for a long time now, working hard in the underground community. Listening to her album the style of music that she produces, my perceptions of her is that she almost not trying to follower the footsteps of certain artists who are around today. For example Jill Scott with that poetry flow, Angie Stone who possess natural rhythm and culture, just to name a few. Shes making her own decision on judgement of life and thats what people want to hear.
So my verdict is keep trying Corinne, I must admit her album is not HOT! But she's improving and that's the important thing keep going forward Girl!
Many Thanks
