Angel: About Time – review

UK R&B singer's debut album fails to meet the standard of his collaborative chart successes to date, writes Kitty Empire
  
  


Despite the title, Angel's debut album isn't exactly about the time this up 'n' coming UK R&B singer spent on remand before being acquitted of a crime he didn't commit. He's a lover, not a jailbird. And About Time capitalises on Sirach "Angel" Charles's backroom recording successes to date – tracks such as Roll Deep's Green Light, and Coming Home by Pixie Lott and Jason Derulo – with an album where the credit is, finally, all his. Regrettably, nothing here really bests his hard-but-soppy curio Wonderful, which went top 20 last year. The World, the current single, finds Auto-Tune piffle hitched unremarkably to clubby builds.
