Head Dirty Talk and her new song Till Death yesterday and damn i must say how OLD SKOOL is she??

She proper has something about her that is so appealing, i am not usually into that current "Eurodance" stuff but Wynter is totally different and vocally very unique.

Her debut EP is only released in Australia thus far and has sold phenomenally and Dirty Talk and Till Death have gone 3x Platinum and Platinum respectfully.

The last person to start in Aus and then go international was Lady gaga.....just putting it out there....i think we could have a new deserved superstar up and coming!

Oh and she loves Xena Warrior Princess and Tim Burton....she is officially cool!

Opinion, thoughts, fave tracks....deliver!

I know! She's fantastic! Another one of my favourites is "Buy My Love". It reminds me of Rihanna's 'Lemme Get That'.

I can't wait for her album to come out over here!
I'm hoping a couple bonus tracks get put on our version, i.e: Believer & Toyfriend.

Also, I didn't realise it was her singing on the chorus of Flo.rida's "Sugar" song.

Yeah i love the ones on her EP, in Australia she is promoting like crazy. Then she will promote i think Stateside for this year and push the album out and then i truly hope she broadcasts the album across UK and Europe! I mean she has such a raw voice and style i love it!

i agree she is brilliant, but shes not getting any UK exposure, so i doubt she will really amount to anything over here.
dirty talk did do fairly well, it lingered around the top 20 position for weeks! but she wasnt getting any backing, if radio 1 had playlisted the song, then it would of reached top 10 imo.
i love her new single 'till death', but again, this will get no airplay.

For the moment though, if you remember Lady gaga released Just Dance in 2008 and The Fame was only available in Asia and Australia before release Stateside later 2008. I think Wynter will follow suit and the hits will come!

Dirty Talk was a phenomenal JAM! and a slick video of JUST her. Whether she establishes herself now or later we will see! I hope she is not criminally overlooked like Janelle, Kelis, Robyn, MIA

Yeah it is in limited copies distributed and can be expensive atm too. When it is released internationally it will be better! And i cannot wait for the release.

'Til Death is out in the UK soon (5th September) Love this woman, Rumba, Til Death, Dirty Talk and Buy My Love are my favourite tracks on the album, which is amazing! Buy My Love is the 3rd single in Australia apparently btw, so it will be 3rd here too!

Unfortunately, Wynter has built her reputation on smutty dance pop. I doubt very much anybody is going to take her attempts at progressive balladry seriously.

I love Dirty Talk. It's my excuse for dancing like a slag when I go out.

You say that like all she has sang are songs about licking vaginies and chowing down on cock! Where Dirty Talk in itself was a massive dancey kinda parody on it but it is seductive and tolerable! and actually a massive smash!

But all her other songs show a different side to her. I think she is very interesting and different however! Not a forced in your face artist but take it or leave it kinda way!

Love her image and voice, very kinda amazonian/Fifth Element kinda look.

I got the album yesterday, and I've had 'Rumba' on repeat in the car. It is such a fantasic summer song. This and The Saturday's 'All Fired Up' and definately my tunes for this summer.

Which one? The LP or the E.P? I think the L.P might need to be tweaked if it gets released over here, there are a few filler songs, but the rest is amazing. I'd give the give the album in it's current state an 8/10, but I reckon it has potential to have a few better tracks.

The album 'With The Music I Die'.

I think she has the potential to be big. As long as she has the right songs I think she can do it.

She's released a L.P in Australia, which contains 10 tracks, but a 6 track E.P in The U.S, both called 'With The Music I Die'.

The U.S only E.P contains
- Til Death
- Buy My Love
- Don't Stop Me
- Still Getting Younger
and the Australian L.P contains the above tracks, plus
- Dirty Talk
- Drunk On Your Love
- All My Life
- Rumba (ft. Kevin McCall)
- Back To You
- In The Morning

Apparently she recorded all of Rihanna's "Loud" album (as a mixtape) but who knows if it ever got released.

Oh right. I've just checked my iTunes and I have all those songs you mentioned. Didn't know there were different versions.
