A lady with one of the most soulful voices around, and the daughter of the legendary singer Donny Hathaway, returns with her sixth solo album ‘Where It All Begins‘ released on 18th October.
As if the first single ‘If You Want To’ wasn’t enough, now the exquisite album cover has been released to seal the deal. A drawing of the always gorgeous singer is utilized here with Lalah’s lovely locks replaced with renderings of her father Donny Hathaway’s many album covers. But if you look closely, that’s Lalah in her dad’s place on each cover in a nostalgic twist. Lalah not only pays homage to her father visually on ‘Where It All Begins’, but musically as well with a remake of his song ‘You Were Meant For Me’ included here in addition to a reworking of her own classic ‘I’m Coming Back’ from her 1990 self-titled debut with Rachelle Ferrell on board.
You can hear Lalah’s beautiful rendition of her father’s ‘You Were Meant For Me’ on my Fusion Flavours show all this week from 1pm Monday to Friday.
