Featuring the amazing single Running and smooth current single 110%.

I know those threads are in Urban but her music is dance-based and she's coming from a dance background (SBTRKT was her breakthrough). 110% is a downtempo dance track. And most of her audience are dance fans.

I can't wait, her solo work has been great so far. This should be such a chilled, yet sensual album.

I agree about this being in dance - "Running" and "Devotion" are pretty R&B, but she's definitely set in the world of alternative dance music.

Totally agree :D This new track reminds of Yasmin's stuff (her career hasn't really taken off sadly)

Beautiful video perfect for spring, great song too

Heard 110% the other day, as I saw Yasmin tweeted about it and I really like that song!

Jessie just did a cover of Bobby Caldwell's "What You Won't Do For Love". It's produced my Sampha, and mixes 90s R&B sounds with ambient. It's so sleek and sensual.

Listen to it here and download it it in HQ for free off her official facebook page.

Thread of that is here and no, i don't have a problem with that! It's basically pop.

Can't wait for this album!

I still think it doesn't belongs in the Dance forum though...

It's a cover. She maybe doesn't want covers on the album. Might be a b-side.

Seems like the other Sampha produced track (& debut single) "Strangest Feeling" isn't on there. :cry:
