Emeli Sandé Biography
Emeli Sandé is a British singer-songwriter known for her soulful voice and emotionally resonant songwriting in the pop, R&B, and jazz genres. Sandé began her career by providing guest vocals for several prominent UK grime acts before establishing herself as a solo artist. Prior to her solo debut, she contributed as a songwriter within the UK urban music scene, collaborating with artists such as Wiley, Wretch 32, and Chipmunk. Her songwriting skills have also been sought after by international acts, including Alicia Keys, Rihanna, and Katy Perry. Sandé studied medicine at the University of Glasgow, earning a clinical medicine degree with a specialization in neuroscience.
Sandé made her professional singing debut on Chipmunk's single "Diamond Rings," which reached the top 10 on the UK singles chart, followed by another top-10 appearance on Wiley's single "Never Be Your Woman." Her debut solo single, "Heaven," marked the beginning of her solo career. Her first album, "Our Version of Events," achieved significant commercial success, spending 10 weeks at number one on the UK albums chart and becoming the best-selling album of its release year. The album broke the record for the most consecutive weeks inside the UK's Official Albums Chart Top 10, surpassing a record previously held by The Beatles. Notable tracks from the album include "Next to Me" and "Read All About It, Pt. III." Sandé received two Brit Awards for Best British Female Solo Artist and British Album of the Year, as well as two Ivor Novello Awards for "Next to Me."
Sandé performed at both the opening and closing ceremonies of the London Olympic Games, which contributed to her international recognition. She has also performed at the White House for Barack Obama. Her second album, "Long Live the Angels," explored themes of love, loss, and redemption, reaching number two on the UK charts. Sandé has received multiple accolades, including four Brit Awards—Critics' Choice, Best Album, and Best Female Solo Artist twice. She was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) for her contributions to music.
Sandé has continued to develop her artistry with subsequent releases. Her third album, "Real Life," was recorded following a period of personal reflection. The fourth studio album, "Let's Say for Instance," released through Chrysalis Records, blended classical, disco, and R&B influences. Sandé's fifth album, "How Were We to Know," received positive reviews. She later released "Roots" via her own label, Venus Records, highlighting her independence and creative direction. With a career spanning chart-topping albums, international performances, and a substantial body of songwriting, Sandé is recognized as a significant figure in contemporary British music.
