Hailing from South … Read Full Bio ↴Sipprell is an artist who works on feeling, emotion.
Hailing from South London, the singer blends a soulful touch with an awareness of underground electronic music.
Hooking up with a series of producers, Sipprell has been searching for that beat, for the right essence to compliment her songwriting.
It seems that she's found it. Debut single 'Curious' is out and it features some deft, down tempo production from Ragz Originale.
Think Andreya Triana's collaborations with Flying Lotus or Bonobo and you'd be close: this is dank yet wonderfully engrossing electronic soul.

Like a beggar, with my hands held out
You took me in before you even knew
who I was (but you gave your trust)
Oo, you took a chance with me
Gave me the key to all your luxury
You made me feel, finally someone cared enough
All I ever wanted was to know I could be loved, loved
I could be loved
I've buried all my secrets deep inside
It built a layer, til' there was nowhere to hide
I gave up my disguise (gave up my disguise)
And now there's no going back, now there's no going back 'cause
You took a chance with me
Gave me the key to all your luxury
You made me feel, finally someone cared enough
All I ever needed was to know I could be loved, loved
I could be loved, loved
You sheltered me from my despair (my despair)
I was helpless you were there
Only you could save me, only you
Only you, could save me 'cause
All I ever wanted (all I ever wanted was your love)
All I ever needed was to know (I could be loved)
All I ever wanted (is someone like you)
All I ever needed was to know I could be loved
I could be, I could be loved
I could be loved
By you
I could be
I could be loved
I could be (loved)
Oooo
I could be (loved)
I could be loved
I could be loved (loved)
By you, by you, by you
By you, by you, by you
