From writing songs for artists, including including Alicia Keys, Gabrielle, Leona Lewis, Alesha Dixon, and Cheryl Cole; to performing at the Opening and Closing ceremonies at the London 2012 Olympic Games. Author, John Dingwall, talks to Emeli, her parents, her sister, schoolteachers and those who have been involved in her career. He details her childhood, her first record deal and how she was initially rejected by Gary Barlow – who told her she was never going to be a star. Emeli Sandé – Read All About It describes an artist’s struggle to the top, from her early collaborations with the likes of Wiley, Tinie Tempah, and Professor Green, before making it as an artist in her own right.
