Praised for her refined genre-bending signature blend of soul, hip-hop, funk, and reggae and her palatable, gimmick-free pop sensibilities, Selah Sue's major label debut is finally set to be released in the US. EARMILK is proud to premiere two songs off the internationally acclaimed Belgian-born sensation's eponymous LP.
"Break", a song exclusively available on the U.S. release of Sue's self-titled album, is a beautiful and emotive song on which Selah's soulful and raspy vocals are paired nicely with an acoustic guitar.

The second song "On The Run", another exclusive track included on the U.S. release of Selah Sue, is a distinctly soulful number ripe with brooding guitar/bass riffs and sultry vocal work from Selah Sue.

Originally released in March of last year in Europe, Selah's debut LP has already topped the Belgian album charts as well charting in the debuting in the top ten in France and the Netherland, as well charting in Poland and Switzerland. With a devoted international following in tow and more than 400,000 units sold already following a limited European release, the Belgian songstress' LP is slated to make quite an impact when it's released stateside next August 21 via Columbia Records.
In addition to the US version of her hit single “Raggamuffin” featuring Roc Nation's J. Cole and "Break" and "On th Run" the U.S. version of the album will include a third exclusive, never-before-heard song entitled “Fade Away." In promotion of her album Sue will hit the road on separate tours in North America with Ed Sheeran, Emeli Sandé and Allen Stone.
