Selah Sue was not destined to become an artist. “I grew up in a really little town in Belgium, and none of my family was into music,” reveals the twenty-one year old, with refreshing sincerity. “As a kid, I wanted to be a ballerina. I danced from the age of six to twelve”. Even without romanticising it, her story is like a fairy tale. It’s the story of a young musician who ignores her fate, and pours her anxieties into her songs and her guitar. “I had all these worries and depressions that I wrote down, it was a way of structuring my thoughts”. She turns her doubts into soul, funk and reggae melodies, trying hard to be worthy of her idols, Lauryn Hill, Erykah Badu and Bob Marley. She sings in local clubs on the weekend and attends high school during the week. She records in home-studios, at friends houses, and publishes drafts of her songs on Myspace, without a thought of making a career in music.

What happens next seems almost unreal. Thousands of fans respond to her on the net, attracting the attention of professionals, and the interest of Because Music, which eventually leads to a record deal forthe young musician. Then Farhot (Nneka) and Patrice take on the production of her first album. Meshell  Ndegeocello stays with her in the studio for two days to produce the track “Mommy”. Cee-Lo Green agrees to accompany her on a duet and ends up asking her to put the track (“Please”) on his own album. And, last but not least, last autumn Prince offered her a coveted support slot at his show in Antwerp, Belgium. To put it in a nutshell, in just two years, Selah Sue has fulfilled her dreams. To keep her grounded, she has insisted on keeping the songs she wrote during her teens for her debut album. It’s a way of reminding the world that she has not been unfairly spoiled by destiny and that before Prince, Cee-Lo Green, radio play and incredible press, there was just a teenage girl, with her guitar, who was chosen spontaneously by fans on the net. For example, her first single “Raggamuffin” is one of her oldest songs and was viewed more than a million times online. “This track symbolizes me” she explains. “It shows my soulful and singing side, but also my hard side, between rap and ragga. When my manager asked me who I wanted to work with, I said Farhot straight away, as I’m a fan of Nneka. But I also wanted an intimate, dark, melodious record, with light and lively beats. Farhot is crazy about digital sounds and Patrice, who I know well, was the ideal man for the melodious part. They were my two accomplices in the studio.”

Her first album is ambitious. It is a smart melting pot between electric rock, organic hip-hop and soul-funk. The twelve tracks shift from poignant ballads like “Mommy” to wilder styles like “Crazy Vibes”. Like Janelle Monae, M.I.A. or Aloe Blacc, Selah Sue belongs to a new generation for whom music has no boundaries.
Selah Sue will tour her new record in the Spring.

To act like you’re some kind of hard ass clown

But I, I know better than that
I know you’re way too long
Oh you’re way too long

See I know about your background
It wasn’t easy, I know for sure

Explanations

Yes I’m not feeling so well lately
Lying to myself just wait and see
Time of the month so I’ll just blame it all on that
But one week later surprise surprise
Nothing in my pants, tears in my eyes
No reason why I feel so damn depressed

So shrink tell me what’s going on
I hate myself so bad, just can’t hold on
The feeling that I’m locked inside myself
But Sally girl, come on, don’t be sad, yeah, just be strong
Don’t see black or white, but see things more in grey

But I need explanations and some fitting solutions
‘Cause I am turning in a stranger more and more yeah
Yes I need explanations and some fitting solutions
‘Cause my emotions make me feel so insecure

And I’m not being myself lately
So I try to act more naturally
But that story wasn’t planned for me

And instead of that I get more upset
Bad thoughts are spinning in my head
Don’t say blame it all on puberty

But I need explanations and some fitting solutions, ‘cause
‘Cause I am turning in a stranger more and more yeah
I need explanations and some fitting solutions, ‘cause
‘Cause my emotions make me feel so insecure

But don’t fake it embrace it
’Cause it’s just the way you are
And just wait, meditate
And in the end you’ll bring it far, yeah, yeah

But I need explanations and some fitting solutions, ‘cause
‘Cause I am turning in a stranger more and more yeah
Yes I need explanations and some fitting solutions, ‘cause
‘Cause my emotions make me feel so insecure

Fyah Fyah

Sometimes, it is not that easy
To understand, oh yeah I know
See I, I just have those moments
When the darkness inside, takes over control

And then I’m chained and locked inside my head
But it will never be the same again
After I’ll say fyah fyah, hey, hey

But it’s I
I’ll just have to face it
And this is who I am
And nothing more

So now
Stop whining Sally
And just get yourself together
And sing the fucking song

I’ll just have to face the dark inside my head
’Cause there is nothing else to do, yeah, yeah
But it will never be the same again
After I’ll say fyah fyah, hey, hey

Fyah fyah what shall I do mighty dread
It’s the killer of my mental state, yeah
Be strong, no I will not go on
Let it get me, no way man, I just can’t do that

So big it up everyone trying to face their mess

You and I
The feeling I had
It’s coming back again

The world went dark
As did the rest in life
Hold on my love, I say
Hold on my love
When my head is getting cloudy
And my words are getting dark
When my pain frees all my anger
’Cause I crave
Yeah I crave to catch
I crave to catch a spark
And if I’m saying I don’t love you
It’s just because I do
It’s just because I do

It’s just because I can’t
Let you see all of these parts
Still hanging in the air
Oh God I wish they, they formed a person
Who we could love, who we could love from now on
But instead I’m still against them
And I would love to see them go
I would love to see them go

You and I
The feeling I had
It’s coming back again

You wrapped your arms around my soul
I could never live without you
And now we’re waiting for the sun to come
To melt this cold black snow
All our dreams put on the shelves
But I’m sure we'll let them know
Who we are

That you and I
The feeling we have
It’s coming back again

Ain't no sunshine

( Bil Withers Cover / Live duet with Ronny Mosuse )

Ain't no sunshine now you're gone
It's not warm now you're away
Ain't no sunshine now you're gone
And the days just seems so long
Ever since you've been away

Wonder why you had to go
Wonder was this meant to be
Ain't no sunshine now you're gone
And this house just ain't no home
Ever since you've been away

And I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know

You better leave this thing alone
But ain't no sunshine when you're gone,
But ain't no sunshine now you're gone
Only darkness everyday
Ain't no sunshine now you're gone
And this house just ain't no home
Ever since you've been away

Ever since you've been away
Ever since you've been away
Ever since you've been away
Ever since you've been away

Break

How long will it take
Before I make the big mistake
And how long will it take
Before my eyes speak out the truth

Oh how will I break
When all the roles can't understand
And thoughts are running out of it

Oh how will I fall
When I can't deal with this at all
It's getting darker, break my walls
But no one gets my point at all, at all, at all

How long will it take
Before the mask falls off, it's fake
And how long will it take
Before my eyes speak out the truth

Oh how will I break
When all the roles can't understand
And thoughts are running out of it

Oh how will I fall when I can't deal with this at all
It's getting darker, break my walls
But no one gets my point at all, at all, at all

At all, at all

Daydreamer

Daydreamer
Sitting on the sea
Soaking up the sun
He is a real lover
Of making up the past
And feeling up his girl
Like he's never felt her figure before

A jaw dropper
Looks good when he walks
Is the subject of their talk
He would be hard to chase
But good to catch and he could change the world
With his hands behind his back, oh

You can find him
Sitting on your doorstep
Waiting for the surprise
And he will feel like he's been there for hours
And you can tell that he'll be there for life

Daydreamer
With eyes that make you melt
He lends his coat for shelter
Plus he's there for you
When he shouldn't be
But he stays all the same
Waits for you, then sees you through

There's no way I
Could describe him
What I've said is
Just what I'm hoping for

But I will find him
Sitting on my doorstep
Waiting for a surprise
And he will feel like he's been there for hours
And I can tell that he'll be there for life
And I can tell that he'll be there for life

Freedom Time

( Lauryn Hil Cover / Live )

Yes everybody knows that they're guilty
And everybody knows that they've lied
And everybody knows that they're guilty
Resting on their conscience eating their inside

It's freedom, said it's freedom time
It's freedom, said it's freedom time now
It's time to get free, oh give us yourselves up now
It's freedom, said it's freedom time

Yo, there's a war in the mind, over territory
For the dominion
Who will dominate the opinion
Skisms and isms, keepin' us in forms of religion
Conformin' our vision
To the world churches decision
Trapped in a section
Submitted to committee election
Moral infection
Epidemic lies and deception
Insurrection
Of the highest possible order
Destortin' our tape recorders
From hearin' like under water
Beyond the borders
Fond of sin and disorder
Bound by the strategy
It's systematic depravity
Heavy as gravity
Head first in the cavity
Without a bottom
A faith, worse than Saddam
Once got him
Drunk of the spirits
Truth comes, we can't hear it
When you've been, programmed to fear it
I had a vision
I was fallin' in indecision
Apollin', callin' religion
Some program on television
How can dominant wisdom
Be recognized in the system
Of Anti-Christ, the majority rules
Intelligent fools
PhD's in illusion
Masters of mass confusion
Bacholors in past illusion
Now who you choosin'
The head or the tail
The bloodshed of male
More confidence in the tale
Conference is in Yale
Discussin' doctrines of Baal
Causin' people to fail
Keepin' the third in jail
His word is nale
Everything to the tree
Severing all of me from all that I used to be
Formless and void
Totally paranoid
Enjoy darkness as the Lord
Keepin' me from the sword
Block for mercy
Bitter than purgatory
Hungry and thirsty
For good meat we would eat
And still, dined at the table of deceit
How incomplete
From confrontation to retreat
We prolong the true enemy’s defeat
Death to the ascendancy
Causin' desperation to get the best of me
Punishment 'til there was nothing left of me
Realizin' the unescapable death of me
No options in the valley of decision
The only doctrine, supernatural circumcision
Inwardly, only water can purge the heart
From words that fiery darts
Thrown by the workers of the arts
Iniquity, shapen in
There're no escapin' when
You're whole philosophy is paper thin
In vanity
The wide road is insanity
Could it be all of humanity
Picture that
Scripture that
The origin of a man's heart is black
How can we show up for
An invisible war

Everybody knows that they've lied
And everybody knows that they've perpetrated inside
And everybody knows that they're guilty, yes
Resting on their conscience eating their insides
Get free, be who you're supposed to be
Freedom, said it's freedom time now
Freedom, said it's freedom time now
Freedom, freedom time now

Kiss

To have an attitude
You just leave it all up to me
My love will be your food

You don’t have to be rich
To be my boy
You don’t have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign
I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss

Lost Ones

( Live / Lauryn Hill Cover )

It's funny how money changes situations
Miscommunication leads to complication
‘Cause my emancipation don't fit your equation
I was on the humble, you - on every station

Some wan' play young Lauryn like she dumb
But remember not a game new under the sun
Everything you did has already been done
I know all the tricks from Bricks to Kingston

My ting done made your kingdom wan' run
Now understand L. Boogie non violent
But if a thing test me, run for mi gun
Can't take a threat to mi newborn son

L's been this way since creation
A groupie call, you fall from temptation
Now you wanna bawl over separation
Tarnish my image in your conversation

Who you gon' scrimmage, like you the champion
You might win some but you just lost one
You might win some but you just lost one

You just lost one, it's so silly how come
You just lost one, it's so silly how come
You just lost one, it's so silly how come
You just lost one, it's so silly

Now don't you understand man universal law
What you throw out comes back to you, star
Never underestimate those who you scar
Karma, karma, karma comes back to you hard

You can't hold God's people back that long
The chain of Shatan wasn't made that strong
Trying to pretend like your word is your bond
But until you do right, all you do will go wrong

Now some might mistake this for just a simple song
And some don't know what they have 'til it's gone
Now even when you're gone you can still be reborn
And, from the night can arrive the sweet dawn

Now, some might listen and some might shun
And some may think that they've reached perfection
If you look closely you'll see what you've become
‘Cause you might win some but you just lost one
You might win some but you just lost one

You just lost one, it's so silly how come
You just lost one, it's so silly how come
You just lost one, it's so silly how come
You just lost one

You just lost one
But you really lost one
You just lost one
But you really lost one…

On The Run

The more you tried
The more you are being less inside
The more it changed
The more you lost your peace of mind

Please hear me
I know what it's like to feel this way
Girl, I do understand
It wasn't all that easy, yeah

You better watch out, my friend
You're on the run, but it never comes easy
It could happen again
You're on the run, but it never comes easy
You better get out, my friend
You're on the run, but it never comes easy

The more you cried
The more you're being restless inside
The more it changed
The more your eyes stayed open at night
Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a sin
Please, girl
I know what it's like to lose your way
Girl, I do understand
It wasn't all that easy, yeah

But then your mom said "Enough"
But it's hard to stay yourself
And then it's hard to put yourself back on track
You need some help
Find yourself, it's on the way
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
But it's never easy, yeah

You better watch out, my friend
You're on the run, but it never comes easy
It could happen again
You're on the run, but it never comes easy
You better get out, my friend
You're on the run, but it never comes easy
You're on the run, but it never comes easy

You better watch out, my friend
You're on the run, but it never comes easy
It could happen again
You're on the run, but it never comes easy
You better get out, my friend
You're on the run, but it never comes easy

*** Thanx a lot to Peterican for this one ***

Those Were My Days

I truly loved you
I saw the tears in your eyes and still
I did adore you
For the ways you filled me in
And after that I truly lived in the past, I do
Yes yeah, I do

And then you came in
And you would say
We would sees the day
And that all worries, all worries fade away
And we would meet some guys
With the best hairstyles
We would have the time of our lives

We were young
We were never apart
True soulmate hearts
We were having fun
But it was more than that
You could read my mind

I truly called you
Everyday for eight years
And then I told you
Every little mental fear
And after that I died a bit

'Cause those were the days
The joy of my life
Remember that, yeah
And now we are older, yeah
But I will never forget

Those were the days
The joy of my life
Remember that
And now we are older, yeah
But I will never forget
How could that do that
How could that do that
How could that do that

Valerie

( Amy Winehouse / live cover )

Yes, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things
Of what you're doing
And in my head I paint a picture

Since I’ve come home
Well my body's been a mess
And I miss your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over
Stop making a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over

Valerie
Valerie
Your Valerie
Valerie

Well, did you have to go to jail
Put your house out up for sale
Did you get a good lawyer
I hope you didn’t catch a tan
I hope you find the right man
Who'll fix it for you

And are you shopping anywhere
Change the color of your hair
And are you busy
And did you have to pay that fine
That you were dodging all the time
Are you still dizzy

Well since I come home
Well my body's been a mess
And I miss your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress
Won’t you come on over
Stop making a fool out of me
Oh why don’t you come on over

Valerie
Valerie
Your Valerie
Valerie
Your Valerie…

Why don't you come on over Valerie
