Estelle is back folks! "American Boy" was her breakout song here in America, but beyond that, chart success here in the States has been elusive...that is, until now. Her new single, the Rick Ross-assisted "Break My Heart" hits all of the right notes. It's a smooth, sultry R&B track tailor-made for Estelle's distinctive and soulful voice. While I absolutely loved her single "Freak," featuring Kardinal Offishall and produced by David Guetta, it clearly didn't resonate with her usual fan base. The single only managed to peak at #103 on the UK Singles Chart and #83 in Canada. Follow up single, the Nas-assisted, DJ Frank E-produced "Fall In Love" was more in line with what fans of Estelle's probably expected, however that single failed to chart at all. I'm still a bit confused as to what overall sound we're going to hear on Estelle's new album, considering the drastic difference between the two singles released so far.
"Break My Heart" is a well timed, return to form for Estelle. The track was produced by Don Cannon, and is the third single to be lifted off of Estelle's forthcoming third studio album, All Of Me, due out later this year. The single will be available for download starting on April 26th so make sure you pick it up. Listen to the single below and tell me what you think!
