Sam Smith Announces New Album of Old Music

Sam Smith wasn't always the Grammy-grabbing, Bond Theme-singing music icon he is today. Before he became a global sensation and was dubbed "the male Adele," Smith signed with a London indie label called Flipbook. Now, one of our favorite Brits is releasing, Diva Boy, an album of early music he recorded under the label.

Flipbook prides itself on fostering Smith in his early years, saying in a release:

"Yes, Sam was in development and trained for success over three years with Flipbook Music, a London based Indie Label. It was at Flipbook Music that Sam's dreams were nurtured, his, then undiscovered, talents uncovered and developed and it was there he learned his art. It's also where he experienced all his 'firsts', including recording his first album, his first live and video performances and first interviews and, later on, his interviews as an informed person when he shares his views on life, love, sexuality and more. This journey was recorded every step of the way for the making of the documentary... Sam Smith The Lost Years."

The album's announcement leads with the single "Momentarily Mine," the video for which features a young, pre-fame Sam Smith showing us he's had the voice of an angel all along. Watch below.
