If you guys love great Rhythm & Blues (no not R&B, but REAL Rhythm & Blues) like I do then you must do yourself a favor and pick up ADELE's
21 she's a young chick from across the pound and she jams! I found out about her while in the car 2 1/2 years ago. She had this jam called
Chasing Pavements from her first album
19. Which she won a couple of Grammy's for. She has this raw passion that you'll hear her exude on all her tracks and you be like no way she can't be only 24. Her lyrics are very noteworthy! And yes she is true songstress, she plays the guitar and I think the piano. Last year she stopped here in Cleveland at our HOUSE of BLUES and it was SOLD OUT. She was there only with a piano and guitar and was ROCKING OUT like nobody's business. That was when I was like YES I'm a believer! Also check out her LIVE performances on youtube and you'll see what I'm saying. She reminds me of a young Jill Scott in terms of her lyrical content and performances as Jill makes you
feel that passion and that foot stomping, head nodding feel good music...
