Lianne La HavasThe opening track to La Havas' second record is called Unstoppable, a sentiment that aptly captures the English singer's rise to stardom.
Blood is ambitious, with grandiose arrangements acting as a base for her soulful voice. At times reminiscent of Janelle Monae, at others Jenny Lewis, her voice is flexible and across Blood her range is displayed in full. From the brooding yet beautiful ode to her Jamaican heritage, Green & Gold, to the pop-tastic single, What You Don't Do, there's no doubt that La Havas is the real deal and a reassuring antidote to pop's mainstream.
