[Album] All of Me by Estelle

Wasn't really expecting this to hit the net early, but I guess it's impossible to stop leaks. Even with the new policies put in place via Google and security measures labels have been taking as over last December, this slipped through the cracks. 

I'm full listen into Estelle's new album, All of Me, and I'm completely enthralled by it. I wasn't a huge fan of her 2008 sophomore album, Shine, but I did have a handful of favorites. How can we forget "American Boy" with Kanye West? This album is a lot more smooth and contemporary. It's a classy mixture of adult R&B decked with British swag.

Stand outs are "Cold Crush," "The Life" and US single "Thank You." I can't quite put my finger on it, but each one of these tracks seems to have a young Mary J. Blige quality to them. 

I'll probably give a more in depth review after I've listened to the album a couple of more times. Until then, give a listen yourself and let me know your thoughts in the comment section.
