Amy Winehouse died eight years ago today.

At the age of 20, Amy Winehouse signed with Island Records. The Times of London’s Dan Cairns described her voice as “a cracked, racked husk that will one moment coo at the object of her affection, the next emit a caustic rasp at the target of her scorn.” lat.ms/32J4OQ5

Amy Winehouse’s influence continues to extend far. It is apparent in other young female soul singers such as Adele, Estelle, Leona Lewis, Lily Allen and Duffy. lat.ms/32J4OQ5
