'Diva Boy' is the name of the album with the first recordings of Sam Smith, an album that is about to be relaunched by an independent label in the city of London.
'Sam Smith - Diva Boy' will be released by the Flipbook label in September, an album with almost unreleased recordings by Smith that had originally been released in 2008, when the singer was only 16 years old. The song 'Momentarily Mine' is included in the album, and is accompanied by the documentary 'Sam Smith: The Lost Years', which recorded the recording process of this album.
Related to this release and to shed light on this work, Smith's representative issued a press release: “Sam Smith is currently a recognized multi-award-winning singer and internationally successful star, but getting to this point has not happened overnight and without having to work hard to achieve it. This young British singer-songwriter spent his early formative years at Flipbook Studios in West London., where his undoubted talent was nurtured and developed over three extremely fruitful years ".
"The experience and training she gained during this early stage has been invaluable, and has been more than just an important step in the development of the career of this unique and talented star we all know now." Sam Smith himself also commented on the matter: "Today I can affirm that my first album was an incredible professional journey that gave me the ability to learn the beginnings of my art".
For its part, the Flipbook label highlighted this reissue: “Listening to this album it is easy to recognize how the 'first recordings' have been an inevitable bridge to the path of success that Sam's career has become. In these songs it is possible to distinguish how Sam already envisioned himself as a candidate to become a star of the song, which he has finally achieved in the course of recent years ».
