Estelle’s international smash ‘American Boy’ has raced to the top of the Official UK Singles Chart – earning the Londoner her first #1. The single, which features rapper Kanye West, dethroned Duffy’s ‘Mercy’ – which had been a fixture at the top of the chart for the past four weeks. Madonna’s ‘4 Minutes To Save The World’ was the highest new entry at #7.I’m ecstatic that Estelle finally ‘got hers’…it’s been a long time in the making. I’ve been following her since her debut ‘1980’ and it’s real rewarding – even as a supporter – to see her getting the recognition she deserves. Onwards and upwards from here…
Any thoughts?
The name of Duffy’s song is Mercy not Moving lol
Me too…i’ve been following Estelle since 1980…bought her album which was a real good piece of UK Hip Hop. I’m so glad people are going to know her now!!!!
this song is great and im glad she is back on top
I’m glad she left the UK. Nothing negative about her and her music, but she has an interview somewhere basically laying into UK RnB music noting that its a mess. I completely agree.
I like her song, it brings something different from all this bs that’s on the air waves and dumb video’s. YOU GO GIRL!
I been feeling this girl since she came out, so happy for her now with all the success and may it continue.
