'Real Girl', is a collection of songs that unveil the R&B heart that always lay beneath Ms. Buena's Sugababes' contributions, but never abandons the joy of pure pop. Its supporting cast of composers, producers and artists all keep the quality effortlessly high without distracting from the strength of Mutya's voice and personality. There is a certain rawness, an edge, present throughout the recording and it was Mutya's idea to keep the sound flawed and spontaneous, to show off the humanity, as well as the technique, of her vocals. 'Real Girl' already contains a hit single, Mutya's duet with George Michael, 'This Is Not Real Love', which hit the charts last November and introduced Planet Pop to Mutya the solo artiste.
Recording with George gained Mutya entry to a very select and exclusive group of female singers that George has worked with throughout his long and hugely successful career, the other three artistes being Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston and Mary J Blige.
