“It was the last record and upon hearing the first few bars I felt enveloped by it, exactly how I feel like my parents were when they met – as they described it being “just them in the room”, completely overtaken.” said Estelle about her new single in the interview we did with her, that you can read entirely here: Estelle about “Better” for Rock Your Lyrics.

“Upon hearing the song ‘Better’, I knew it had all of the right elements of a modern day hit,” said Randy Chin, President at VP Records. “We are very excited to work with Estelle and be alongside her journey in her first full-length reggae project.”
In comparison to those of her formative years, Lover’s Rock is Estelle’s most personal album to date, as she centers in on her West Indian roots with a full-fledged reggae album. She has collaborated with esteemed Jamaican producer Supa Dups [Drake, Beenie Man], Reefa [Lil Wayne], Jerry Wonda [Wyclef Jean], Harmony Samuels and more. In the LP, Estelle has assured to fuse her signature R&B and hip-hop sound while paying homage to her Grenadian roots as she not only concentrates in reggae, but also embraces Afro-beats and Soca music.
