18th Day [Import]

Editorial Reviews
Product Description
Heaped with praise from all corners of the media, three time winner of the UK Hip Hop Awards, & the most respected female rapper in Britain, Estelle has had a lot to live up to. Regarded for some time as a future star, the young MC finally lived up to the hype with her debut single '1980', one of the huge summer hits for 2004. With her debut album 'The 18th Day' she's set to complete her mission to take on the mainstream & win. Unlike other Brit-hop contenders she doesn't feel the need to use the 'from the ghetto' template & is instead content to let the positivity of her music 'keep it real'. So on 'Free' we see her call on the nation's youth to do something with their lives (like 'Why Don't You' for the new millennium), whilst 'Change Is Coming' teaches life's lessons with majestic success & 'Gonna Win' works as an anthem of self-belief for anyone feeling down trodden. 'The 18th Day' is a huge milestone in British hip-hop - a credible record that never panders to the 'Americanisation' of the scene. Estelle is set to be around for a long, long time. V2. 2004.

5 out of 5 stars Grimethorpe is Never Grim!.......2001-01-19

West Yorkshire in England consistantly produces eight to ten of the best brass bands in all the world. The Grimethorpe Collery Band's "Melody Shop" demonstrates why this band is always counted among the finest. This particular CD offers the listener a wide variety of musical tidbits. For the lovers of classical music, Grimethorpe's rendition of the Galop from Rossini's "William Tell" will certainly put you in that Lone Ranger mood!(This piece was heard in the movie "Brassed Off" with Grimethorpe providing the soundtrack for the fictional Grimley Band featured in the movie.)For 70s fans, the band does a hard-charging version of Jimmy Webb's "MacArthur Park."

There is even a hymn on the CD. Barrie Gott's "Lightwalk" (from the old hymn tune "Walk in the Light) actually comes out of the Salvation Army Brass Band literature. I doubt that most listeners ever heard a hymn swing like this one!

My personal favorite is the cut of "Lohengrin: Act 3 Prelude" by Wagner. It is hard to believe that this is a brass band- and I mean ALL BRASS- playing with such fire and technical accuracy. What a group! What a piece! What a wonderful combination!

If you own no brass band CDs, this is a good place to start a collection. It listens "easy," has some tunes you know, and is consistantly entretaining.

    5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Brit Hop!!.......2005-10-13

    Estelle is the new hip hop sensation from the UK and she's mega talented; think Lauryn Hill meets Mary J Blige, with a British accent. She flows from rapping to singing (very clever lyrics) with amazing ease, over eclectic music filled with strings, piano, hand claps and a bubbly bass line.

    A delicate piano/string intro transforms into a sunny upbeat hip hop track `1980', the title refers to the year of her birth and reminisces about her years growing up with references to Dynasty, Dallas and hair plastered down her forehead.

    `Change is coming' tells about people in council housing struggling to pay the rent, and you have the choice to your life, the power to determine the course of your life. Excellent harmonies and Mary J Blige like vocals in the chorus. A similar message of self belief/assertion is found in the clap-a-long retro sounding `Free' featuring Megaman ( with lyrics urging one to spread love), and the horn laden `I'm gonna win'.

    `Go gone' is a fiery (faintly) rock tinged Motown style song, about doing her best and being who she is going to be despite the nay Sayers. If you've got nothing good to say, keep your mouth shut!! A highly addictive dance song.

    The downtempo `I wanna love you' features acoustic guitar and tight harmonies. Still keeping the tempo down are the piano sprinkled `Maybe' (with a haunting bassline), `Crazy', the excellent string filled `Hey girl' (with a Marvin Gaye-like chorus, and a beautiful acoustic guitar/vocal outro), the retro sounding `All over again' featuring Royston, and the harmonica laden neo soul feel of `Dance with me'.

    `On and on' begins with sped up vocals and again features tight harmonies and piano.

    Bonus track `Freedom' is a beauty; filled with piano, strings and lyrics about being true to oneself to be truly free.

    A smashing debut with a promise of even greater stuff in future.

    4 out of 5 stars Estelle is on fire.......2005-05-26
