“Yada, Yada, Yada” - Camielle (Warner Music Australia). “Former Cherry member Camielle drops her debut solo single, “Yada, Yada, Yada” at the end of this month and expect to be surprised. “Yada, Yada, Yada” gives us a taste of what talent lays waiting in young Camielle - with a youth spent between Australia, Jamaica and the U.S. Camielle has developed a very diverse influential background to mould her sound, which is expressed strong and confidently via her amazing voice. Her first single, “Yada, Yada, Yada” is actually penned by long-time TLC collaborator Dallas Austin and has a definite “20s/30s” New York swing influence with a beat supplied by Swedish producer Fathead (Multiplay Music). “Yada, Yada, Yada” is for sure on the U.S. tip and sounds much more polished and international than releases from fellow Australian R and B acts Shakaya and Selwyn, bringing Australian R and B more in line with the U.S. product.”
