The UK's finest - Estelle's brilliantly sassy new single, Pretty Please (Love Me) is released via Atlantic Records/Homeschool. It follows the amazing Wyclef Jean produced, No Substitute Love and the phenomenal No.1 smash hit American Boy, which entered the UK charts at #1 on just digital downloads alone, remaining there to become one 2008's best selling singles. The track which features global superstar kanYe west was also number 1 in no less then 6 European countries, whilst in the US, it is currently no.7 in the soundscan digital songs chart for the second week in a row.
Co-written by Estelle and Jack Splash (Alicia Keys, Missy Elliott, Jamie Foxx) who also takes credit for the track's production, Pretty Please (Love Me) is a classic retro ode to love. It sees the west Londoner showcasing smouldering, soul-smoked vocals to breathtaking effect alongside the mellifluous tones of Gnarls Barkley front man Cee-Lo.
It's the third single lifted from the UK Gold certified, Top 10, critically acclaimed album SHINE recently shortlisted for the 2008 Nationwide Mercury Prize. It includes contributions from an array of superstars including Mark Ronson, wil.i.am and John Legend, however, despite the star studded guest list; it's Estelle who shines brightest throughout the collection. The winner of this year's Nationwide Mercury Prize will be announced live on BBC 2 on Tuesday September 9th.
