Selah Sue is currently touring in the USA promoting her album which is a mix of soul-funk, electric rock, and a little reggae. Sue has no boundaries when it comes to her music, playing guitar since her teens, she thought she would end up as a classical musician, but when she started writing music, she knew what she wanted to do.
Her first album contains the songs she wrote as a teenager, and thought they should be on her very first album. She attributes her style to idols; Lauryen Hill, Erykah Badu, M.I.A.,and Bob Marley. Sue's tracks have some interesting ballads and exciting arrangements, and a variety of vocal range. If it is true that the songs were written as a teenager, she is very creative and has a talent which only gets better with age.
Cee‐Lo Green agreed to accompany her on a duet album and ends up asking her to put the track (“Please”) on his own album. Last Fall Prince offered her a coveted support slot at his show in Antwerp, Belgium.
She is just starting out and at the age of 23, she has a promising career in the music industry as a talented singer/songwriter. Look for her in your area.
