Producer, singer, and songwriter James Blake became known for his unique style, which wrapped aching, gently sung R&B vocals around the deep bass and minimal rhythmic elements of dubstep.He arrived in 2009 with a series of 12" singles and achieved both critical acclaim and worldwide fame following his self-titled 2011 album.
His renown continued to rise over the next several years, and he collaborated with pop icons like Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar, and Bon Iver.His second album, 2013's Overgrown, earned him the prestigious Mercury Prize.
Commercial success worldwide came in the mid-2010s, with high chart placings (as well as critical praise) for 2016's The Colour in Anything and 2019's Assume Form. 2021 saw Blake issue his fifth long-player, Friends That Break Your Heart, which included features from SZA, JID, SwaVay, and Monica Martin.
