Today’s the day! Multi award-winning singer songwriter Emeli Sandé is our cover star for the October Black History Month issue. Want a sneak peek of what she had to say? Read all about it…
On UK Black Pride & Dr Lady Phyll….
“I admire her so much for the work she’s doing and the voice she’s given so many people. It was a really liberating day for me.”
On childhood…
“I had a lovely childhood, but I have to admit, I did feel an outsider. You always felt if an argument started and it really got to it, something racist might come out.”
On finding comfort and strength in music…
“I can take up this space, even if it’s just for one or two songs.”
And on coming out…
“I just felt this real need to be myself and talk about falling in love.”
