he is absolutely correct.

Corrine Bailey-Rae walked so Lianne could run and Lianne ran so Olivia could fly! As you already know the UK aren't new to this sound, we're true to this!!

Lianne getting her flowers??

this a lianne stan page

Explains why I followed

this makes it sounds like Lianne stopped making music, she never did, she has always given time between the projects. No Olivia Dean is not the new Lianne, she is Olivia Dean. They both have distinct sounds and way of writing.

Olivia Dean, Lianne La Havas, Corinne Bailey Rae, Gabrielle, Sade... and the ultimate, Shirley Bassey... you can go back every 5-10 years. The UK likes easy-going music from middle-class biracial or light-skin Black women.

They are both Corinne Bailey Rae’s children and Sade’s grandchildren.

Prob the worst person to highlight for black history month, has a history of being against fighting for black representation/rights

facts still facts lol

Lost and Found and Good Goodbye are songs that stay in rotation. There’s something so beautifully heartbreaking about them that I love!

Lianne La Havas is in a league of her own. Her self titled album vinyl is in my music museum (in a frame on my wall 😂). It’s an album that still gets me through ish and now we have her Substack poems.

Why are people like this? Ya can’t just enjoy music without comparing to others? Lol literally a whole video for what just enjoy the music brother

People please stop using Olivia Dean as a comparison when discussing other flop artists she had nothing to do with.

Nah, I think it was all that kewning she did when Black British artists were trying to fight for adequate representation at the Brit awards. I've never liked or listened to a thing she's put out since. Very Daniel Caesar. V. talented but yuck lol.

The way he did this whole thing and teased up the next artist from 79 is actually brilliant

When I first heard and saw her, I said Corinne, Lianne and Alice Smith walked so she could fly. And Prince brought Lianne out during his headlining performance at EssenceFest in 2014 and most of the crowd had no idea who she was while I was losing my ish.

Quiet as it’s kept, Lola Young is the next Adele, just in a different genre and less great voice.

they are in completely different lanes…

Everytime they see a woman from the UK who sing pop-soul/bossanova music, the media always compares her to Adele smh Im tired of this

And if we wanna talk state side…Alice Smith

Lianne’s “Weird Fishes” cover>>>

My favorite 🤩

next thing yall gonna come across Celeste and call her the new Adele????😞mxm

Never heard of Lianne, and because her career seems to have gone nowhere, I sincerely hope for Olivia’s sake that she is NOT the new Lianne. Would much rather see her be the next Adele, although they are very different artists.

Why do we have to diminish Olivia dean??

So true! Olivia Dean defo gives me Corinne Bailey Rae's first album vibes

When he said “black women weren’t seen playing the guitar” is disrespectful to Michelle Ndegeocgello, Lauryn Hill, Claudette Ortiz, Rosetta Tharp, Tracy Chapman to name a few before Lianna La All Lives Matter.

Lost and Found was one of my favorite songs by her omg I loved this woman when I found her back in the day.

@_NeoCarlton i still bump my girl last project! Bittersweet is my shit!

Don't disrespect lianne la havas

Unstoppable is on repeat over here💯

Lianne is a 🦝 tho

Ghost is a multi platinum song in this household

Idk ain't Corrine Bailey Rae and Leona Lewis come first

Bingo

She's not black tho she didn't call herself black when she accepted her Grammy so yall shouldn't either you see someone light skin n automatically wanna label them as black cuz you think they pretty n want them to represent Black ppl...NO

I use to listen to liane la havas in college!!!

That self titled album from 2020… one of the best albums ever recorded oh my god
