Grace Jones

Grace Jones

9 July 2009

Diva, model, actress, performer and all-round cultural icon, Grace Jones is a true original. Her 30-year recording career ranges from New York disco to New Wave, R&B and the Jamaican reggae of her country of birth. "I've always been a rebel. I never do things the way they're supposed to be done."







Latest album 'Hurricane' reviews

"Her first album in two decades finds Grace Jones's sound as untarnished by time as her public presence" - The Independent

"Jones isn't so much a singer as a force of nature, a black hole that pulls all attention right to its center." - Pitchfork

"This is a voice that will rip up anything that stands in its path. " - BBC Music
