Sade On Top of the Charts
With 50 million records sold on her resume I guess no one should be surprised that Nigerian-English recording artist Sade is # 1 on the Billboard 200. Her new release, Soldier of Love, combines a modern R&B sound with a mystical world music feel. The release is her sixth album and first in ten years since 2000’s Lovers Rock (now triple platinum). Sade, along with her band mates Stuart Matthewman, Andrew Hale, and Paul Spencer Denman, has won fans all over the world for her enchanting sound that continues to push the modern genres of music. The title track from Solider of Love is backed by a Timberland-like hip hop beat with electric guitars, tribal drums, and beautifully arranged backing vocals. Look for a lot more from Sade in 2010.
