Speak Your Mind is the rich fruit of the past two years' work and a hyper-confident artistic statement. On her debut offering Anne-Marie's playfully infectious pop spirit entwines with her celebrated humor, charisma and idiosyncratic storytelling - attributes that have set her apart from her peers and seen her become one of the UK's most-loved female breakthrough stars of recent years. A sonic masterclass, Speak Your Mind spans a number of personal yet relatable topics that only Anne-Marie could unite so compellingly: album opener "Cry" is a message to the ex-boyfriend who wants you back after ditching you for someone else; the empowering "Perfect" is an ode to self-love and appreciation; the vulnerable "Machine" imagines a world free of the negativity and worry that life throws at you; while "2002" - a track Anne-Marie co-wrote with long-time friend and champion Ed Sheeran - recalls memories of a childhood sweetheart.
