Estelle has a good voice no doubt about it and American Boy is one of the songs of the summer. Sadly, such elements have failed to contribute to a memorable album which feels like a rushed cash in with production values so tired, you can ever hear them yawn!
American Boy sounded really fresh with a brilliant use of horns but the rest of the album is just derivative R&B that could have been produced by any female artist within the genre. Estelle struggles to stamp her own identity on any of the tracks and she just sounds like a vocalist singing someone else's work. Generally there is little passion and soul in this, I found myself barely noticing any differences between tracks. As a result, it feels more like lounge music than anything ... Read More:

I loved 'American Boy' and was very disappointed to hear this extremely poor offering as a follow up single.
Its like a wet weekend in Cleethorpes - dreary, dull and awful.
Basically she has taken George Michael's hit 'Faith', completely murdered it and used parts of the song to make a very dull and forgetable song of her own that would have been better off used as a B side at best!
Hopefully this song will soon be forgotten about, once Estelle brings out her next offering. Only providing this effort hasn't damaged her career too much, as they say you're only as good as your last song! Lets hope for Estelle's sake thats not true. 'American Boy' and '1980' are both decent tracks, so she is capable of MUCH better. ... Read More:

Since buying this CD last summer, which I did on a whim on the basis of liking the CD cover, it has now easily entered my personal top 5. You have to realise that I am both a blues pianist and blues fan, so I have a big collection and picky tastes. So what's it like then? Well, it's just two blokes playing guitar and piano, both singing, and was obviously recorded live in a studio - with the occasional guest on percussion. But what feel, talent and rich, warm tones these guys exude from both their instruments and their voices. I cannot believe I hadn't heard of Henry Butler (piano) before last year; he's phenomenal, moving seemlessly between gospel, skiffle (complete with washboard) and the downright funky. He manages to combine graceful but grungy right hand ... Read More:
