Duffy Records 'Hip Hop' Second Album

October 8, 2010
Duffy Records 'Hip Hop' Second AlbumDuffy has been inspired by hip-hop on her forthcoming second album, 'Endlessly'.

The Welsh singer worked with The Roots and Albert Hammond Snr on the effort, due out next month.

In an interview with BBC Newsbeat, Duffy said the collaboration was a “combination of different worlds”.

She said that her intention with the album was to “make people move”, adding: "I played so many live shows that I wanted to feel that we could have a really uptempo gig.”

'Endlessly' is released on November 29 and will be preceded by the single 'Well, Well, Well' on November 21.
