“He’s such a legendary musician and producer, a true icon in music,” she beams. “His humility and passion inspired me so much in the making of the music and I feel that the excitement and positivity in the studio transmits through the song.
“I’m very proud of When Someone Loves You and I hope it brings joy to each listener.”
Nile adds: “I’ve loved working with Emeli over the years as she is such a special talent but I’ve never seen her as happy and full of life as she is right now.
“She has found herself and it’s beautiful to behold.”
