51 year-old vocal songstress Sade “let’s her hair down” on the April 2010 issue of Ebony magazine.

The private and down to earth star, let’s Ebony into her inner-sanctum and allows readers some insight into what she’s been up to since the release of her last album nearly ten years ago and what the future holds for the ageless beauty.

Sade says of her personal life: “I’ve had my ups and downs in the years between these albums. That’s partly why I’m able to write songs that people in some way can hear. I express feelings, real feelings.”
