Relative newcomer Jessie Ware has been nipping at the heels of chart toppers for the last couple of years, but hasn’t quite reached that status just yet.
The soulful voice of the British singer has been heard, although primarily in the U.K. However she did provide vocals on a track, ‘The Crying Game’, for Nicki Minaj’s third studio album. In fact, she wrote the song.
Jessie Ware teamed up with Ed Sheeran to write this song, ‘Say You Love Me’, although he provides no vocal accompaniment. She has been nominated for a few music awards in Britain.
I expect we’ll see more of Jessie Ware. I predict she’ll venture more into the pop realm of music, which will cause new audiences to discover her older music.
In the meantime, you can discover her soulful voice now by listening to this beautiful track.
