Single Review: Edei – ‘Loved’

2 min read

First catching our attention with the monster pop ditty, In My Bed, rising pop sensation Edei is back with her latest Motown infused single, simply titled, Loved.

EdeiLovedDiscovered by the team who developed fellow Brit superstar Joss Stone into a globally recognized artist, 22 year old Londoner Edei is a force of talent to rival the best on the British scene at the moment and the singers latest release is a testament to that.

Edei’s booming vocals resonate throughout Loved like a soul diva in the making with just the right touch of pop commercialism to get the songbird recognized on the mainstream chart scene. Enigmatic harmonies are delivered courtesy of Mary J Blige’s Motown influenced backing singers bringing a funky, nostalgic vibe to the song which sets it apart from the singers pop counterparts.

Edei can definitely sing, there is no doubt about that. Loved provides the perfect arena for the songstress to give her talents a full workout trading belting vocals and whispery tones similar to that of Leona Lewis.

Lyrically the track is very sentimental and has been described by Edei as one about being loved for who you are regardless of looks and what you do.

Loved is the second release for the London singer which is to be taken from her debut album, Inside Information, set for release in the first half of 2011.
