Mercury Prize-nominated singer Jessie Ware possesses a malleable voice, able to belt out a ballad with a diva-like force or slink through the skittering R&B beats of a SBTRKT song. Her debut album Devotion (out now in the U.S. via Cherrytree) is a polished homage to the big-voiced R&B singers of Ware’s youth, infused with late-night electronic grooves and an undeniable swagger. The elegant playground gives Ware the opportunity slip into a variety of personae, from the heartbroken siren of “Taking in Water” to a coy hip-hop honey on the dance floor in “110%.” (via Jessie Ware: The Reluctant Diva: Bonus Quotes | Under The Radar)
