2010 was the last time that we heard from the On A Mission singer before she seemed to drop off the face of world. But given a few years off, Gabriella Cilmi is back and her first single is also the title track of her forthcoming album, The Sting.
In a way we want to say forget what you knew about Cilmi from the days of the chart topping single Sweet About Me & her second album, Ten. This Cilmi has come into her own and still at the tender age of 21. Having left Island and having learnt her lessons, Cilmi has gone off and found a sound that fits her and in our opinion comes somewhere between the two albums. It has a tendency for some dark vibes but it doesn’t detract.
Given the influences that’s recently be listening to whilst bringing her third album to life, it will be interesting to see how much has changed. Still, we recommend a listen as a fan or for the casual listener, check it out and see what Cilmi has become.
