Another UK review:
Richard has written for, among other people, Cassie and if there's one artist worth ending on here it's her. After her Me & U became a huge hit in 2006 she was talked about in the same breath as Aaliyah and there was much frothing at the prospect of her second album. But the release date was pushed back and back, and only now does it look as if Cassie will release a follow-up, called either The Seductress or Electro Love (depending who you trust). What's striking about the track she posted this month, King Of Hearts, is how it involves elements of nearly everything we've talked about. It has the ravey club-banger aspect, it has the innovative yet commercial edge of early noughties R&B, and it has enough sadness in her vocal to draw in the indie crowd. Put simply, it's the best-sounding identity crisis I've heard for a while.
