Estelle - Wait A Minute (Just A Touch)

The UK's finest, award-winning artist Estelle releases her brand new single, 'Wait A Minute (Just A Touch)' on November 26th. The wil.i.am produced track is her blazin' hot debut for the new Homeschool Records label. Set up by and owned by US soul sensation and global superstar John Legend, Estelle is the first artist to the label distributed via Atlantic Records.

'Wait A Minute (Just A Touch)' - the new single, comes from the much-anticipated album SHINE - out February 2008. The set features collaborations with an A-list cast including, Wyclef Jean, will.i.am, Swizz Beats, Mark Ronson and Kanye West, as well as a beautiful duet with John Legend.

"I have known John for a while now...We worked on my first album '18th Day' before he was signed. He featured on 'Hey Girl', played piano on 'Free', and appeared in the video. As I went to do my second album I asked him to help exec-produce it. As I progressed with it, I left my label and he said he'd sign me… and here we are today! We always make great songs together. While I like and listen to a lot of musicians - there aren't many that I respect on a level to help me write songs or upgrade/push me as an artist… but John is one of them."

John Legend continues: "I'm thrilled to be a part of Estelle's career. This album is truly an accomplishment. She will be one of the most of exciting breakthrough talents of 2008. Mark my words."

Estelle - who is now based in New York, came back to the UK to headline the BBC Electric Prom for Radio 1Xtra on October 28th at The Jazz Café. With other performances on the night from Ben Westbeech, Taio Cruz and Durrty Goodz, this event was broadcast live as part of 100% Homegrown from 7-10pm - radio show hosted by Ras Kwame and live show hosted by Twin B.
