As well as working with McGregor, La Havas reunited with past collaborator Matt Hales, La Havas co-wrote each of the album's songs and was credited as a co-producer on one. Havas cited the album as a homage towards her Jamaican and Greek bloodline which in turn inspired the album's title. Blood was seen as a departure from the acoustic musical leanings of her debut Is Your Love Big Enough? (2012), taking on a neo soul and jazz style, with elements of R&B, doo-wop, reggae and gospel music. The album's songs were characterized as having heavy basses with electronic flourishes and lyrics focusing on love, relationships, and identity.

Upon release Blood was met with positive reviews from music critics, who praised the musical transition and its overall progression from La Havas debut album. Commercially the album was successful, peaking at number two in the United Kingdom and number one in the Netherlands and Norway as well as making appearances on other charts. In order to promote the album La Havas ventured on numerous tours and supported Blood with the release of two singles —"Unstoppable" and "What You Don't Do" — both of which fared moderately. It received a nomination for Best Urban Contemporary Album at the 2016 Grammy Awards.

Background

Following La Havas signing in 2010, to Warner Bros. Records, she spent the following two years developing her songwriting skills before releasing any music publicly.[1][2] Her official debut single "Lost & Found" was released in the UK on 30 April 2012,[3] and her debut album, Is Your Love Big Enough? was released on 9 July 2012 on Warner Bros. The album was released to universal acclaim from music critics, later winning the Album of the Year at iTunes UK as well as receiving nominations for a Barclaycard Mercury Prize and Ivor Novello Best Album.[4] Following the release of the album La Havas supported it with numerous tour dates and festivals including the RockNess music festival,[5] Glastonbury Festival 2013.[6] and the Isle of Wight Festival in June 2013.

Recording

The writing and recording for "Blood" was inspired by La Havas' travels to Jamaica.

Following the touring La Havas embarked on in order to promote her debut album "Your Love Big Enough?", she traveled to Jamaica along with her mother in order to regain connections with her roots.[4] During her time in Jamaica La Havas played music for her family alongside dancehall and reggae producer Stephen McGregor (known under his production name Di Genius), who would later go on to produce the majority of the songs on Blood.[4] The exploration of La Havas roots inspired her to begin writing, she stated that the album's writing process and the songs were all related to "the feeling of who you are and where you come from," whilst the album's music was inspired by Jamaica's love of grooves, rhythms, and syncopation.[4]

During the album's recording process La Havas, took inspiration from her mixed Greek and Jamaican heritage and the “clarity” she discovered when going revisiting her youth.[7] Besides Stephen McGregor, La Havas worked with a variety of other producers, the album's lead single "Unstoppable" was produced by Paul Epworth and built upon an instrumental recording by Ninja Tunes trio The Invisible, Unstoppable was written in order to help La Havas repair a relationship that she had previously ended.[4] As well as Epworth, 'Blood' featured production work from Mark Batson, while Aqualung's Matt Hales co-wrote the song 'Wonderful' with La Havas and Disclosure's Howard Lawrence.[8] '

Green and Gold' was co-produced and co-written by Jamie Lidell,[8] the song was also co-produced by La Havas herself and was described by Lianne as being completely literal and true.[9] During the recording of "Midnight" Havas stated that she was able to perform a style of singing that she did not think she could do, the song was written in Jamaica something Lianne said was necessary because she would not have been able to create the lyrics if she was anywhere else.[9]

Music and lyrics

Her songs remain smooth, teetering on the fringes of jazz, only this time, as well as gloss, there is defiance – a leap from the sweet acoustic stories of her 2012 debut, Is Your Love Big Enough?. There are moments on Blood that recall the artistry and ambition of Jill Scott or Lauryn Hill, comparisons that have led to La Havas being described as a neo or nu-soul artist.

— Harriet Gibsone, The Guardian[10]

Blood was seen as departure from the acoustic sound of her debut Is Your Love Big Enough? (2012), taking on a neo soul style that was compared to the work of Lauryn Hill and Jill Scott.[10] Blood was described as a seamless album, one where the songs flow into one another with fluidity and serenity.[11] The album takes numerous influences from musical genres including pop, reggae and old-school jazz whilst its production has been characterised as containing, light chimes and heavy brass.[12] According to Sasha Geffen, the album's production leans towards "upbeat, clever production" that contains flourishes, the songs are built over reversed drums, bold instrumentation, muted guitar fingerpicking, electronic outlier, organic sounds, classical guitars, and twisting electric sounds.[13]

Lyrically "Blood" primarily focuses on love, relationships and identity, La Havas’s lyrics were described as being expressive and combusting.[14] "Blood" also lyrically speaks about La Hava's roots and speaks of her secondhand culture, nostalgia and the longing for something she’s never really experienced.[12] Reviewer Sasha Geffen believed that the album's lyrical content and themes reflect on what it means for La Havas to come into her own as an adult and an artist, with other lyrics revolving around loneliness and "belonging to a sense of unbelonging, coming away with a clearer image of who she is by parsing out who she’s not."[13]

Songs

The album opens with "Unstoppable" a Jazz and Pop song, that opens with breezy chimes[15] and is built over gentle bass riffing, strings, piano, and a subtle electric guitar.[16] The song features an easy-going instrumentals, that features uplifting lyrics.[17] Caitlin White of the publication Stereogum described the song's production as "sweeping" accompanied by "flickers of rich, velvety rhythm guitar," White continued to note the song's lyrical content as glorifying the "kind of relationship that spurs both parties to unspeakable heights."[18] "Green & Gold", is a Jazz infused song that is built over a cascading guitar, finger-snapping rhythm and summery keyboards and horns.[19] Lyrically "Green and Gold" sees La Havas recalling a childhood identity crisis, examining her features in the looking glass and coming up with answers relating to the colours of her mother’s Jamaican flag, her Greek father and her London upbringing.[19]

"What You Don't Do" is an R&B[20] song with elements of doo-wop and Jazz[21][22] that builds gradually, and focuses on La Havas’ voice. The song's arrangements take a backseat, whilst the song's production is described as having a "canned sound for the verses", before picking up on the choruses.[23] The track features horns, gospel-choir style backing vocals, a jittering piano and bursts of brass.[23][24] Lyrically the songs features wit and honesty declaring her security in her relationship, the song relies on turning the negative phrase "What You Don't Do" into a positive message talking about the games La Havas is not "forced to endure" during her relationship.[23] "Tokyo" contains a slow groove built over a hazy effect, lyrically the song sees La Havas yearning and in state of disorientation.[25] La Havas wrote "Tokyo" based on the feeling of loneliness and moving from one place to another, the song was titled after the city of Tokyo due to it being a bustling city, but La Havas stated that "you can feel so alone there". The song also drew some inspiration from the movie Lost in Translation, which La Havas used as inspiration when writing the song.[26]

"Wonderful" has a sleepy production that is similar to a lullaby,[27] the song is a slow tempo track that built over finger snaps, prickles of string, and drums subtly played in reverse with lyrics revolving themes of sadness.[13] "Midnight" is an upbeat neo soul song that features brassy accents.[28] "Midnight" was written in Jamaica and was inspired by her Greek and Jamaican heritage, La Havas stated that lyrically the songs represents a "newfound confidence" in who she is as an artists, her heritage, and her musical style.[29] "Grow" is a reggae-derived song that features the use of an acoustic guitar, lyrically "Grow" sees Havas attempting to resist evil, followed by a climatic chorus that hears Havas using the height of her vocal range.[28] According to Havas Grow was inspired by personal growth;

I wanted it to be hopeful. I wanted it to be joyous, I guess. I seemed to feel better as I did each part of this album. I was using music to discover what I liked. Womanhood, feeling like an adult, but not being quite mature yet – I wanted to celebrate that.[10]
