The 'Elephant' hitmaker wanted to represent her musical journey on the cover of her new album which is very colourful, reported Contactmusic.

"I am pushing colourful fake walls apart. It's colourful, it's pretty, it's just really a step - not a step ahead, but with the last album it was all black and white and that's what I didn't want on this album. I wanted colour. It is a whole different thing. I'm hoping that when people hear this album, they can see the growth," she said.

Burke, 23, has previously said that she will duet with her mother, Mellissa Bell, who was a singer for 90s band Soul II Soul.

 

"She is a big influence. She does backing vocals on it already. Now I want a duet with her. I have to be careful because my mummy's not too well. She can't get up and sing as much as I want her to. But I'd like her on a track. It's not finished until she's on it," she had said.
