After the long holiday weekend, we only have one new album dropping on our R&B radar; Rebecca Ferguson’s ‘Heaven.’ The former X Factor runner-up follows Adele, releasing a soul influenced album, pulling inspiration from a diverse group of artists including Ray Charles, Tupac, Sam Cooke, Stevie Wonder, and Florence + The Machine.
With the success of her debut abroad, the UK songstress is almost guaranteed to be next reality TV artist to secure a household name. The ten track album is packed with Ferguson’s powerful voice and emotional piano ballads that has become her niche.
