Rapper-turned-singer (just kiddin)... Artist Estelle returns to our ears with her new single Freak, features Candian rapper (with dancehall flavour) Kardinal Offishall, produced by hit-maker David Guetta (I Got A Feelin by Black Eyed Peas gets wheels on decks).
Well, whether or not I find her attractive, she isn't a universally recognised sex symbol. I feel this will make it slightly harder for her to sell this song. Beat/bass dominates the track too much for me, so to me, it doesn't sound like her song; more a dance/producer compilation CD. Will knock in clubs.
I said whether or not I find her attractive, but I can catergorically state I most definitely wood! I don't segregate or discriminate/ get into that whole light-skin, dark-skin debate; it's all made of the same stuff... skin stuff innit! So if you think she's too dark gelloutahere! She wasn't much a looker in Trixta with Blak Twang, nor 1980, but that could have been down to the whole rapping thing.
Let's be honest, if a female depends on a swing vote, unless she is an undoubted stunner like Lil Kim (early days), Foxy Brown (Broken Silence times), Eve after the peppergrains grew out (Who's That Girl times), Trina or most recently Nicki Minaj (anytime!), femcees don't get that love. Shystie and Baby Blue are aaaalright, but it's debatable. Get my point?
Post 'American Boy' times I've been a fan. Her sister H-Boogie is sexy bad! Estelle/H-Boogie, if you read this holla at me. The beat knocks + knockers = anticipating the vid. All the best with the success of this tune. I like Estelle as a person (don't know her, I rate her grind, struggle and honesty).
Hold tight UK rapper Sway commenting on my blogpost about him Sway's new song... do we care?, then holla'in on Twitter: @Sway_Dcypha: @MarvinSparks read your Sway... Do we still care write up... Interesting...

I really like this Estelle Joint. It has my vote.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the beat. It's Serious. Defo one tune that will be in the clubs and be rinsed out like American Boy was.
