[es] Shine (álbum de Estelle)

Shine es el segundo álbum de estudio de la cantante inglesa Estelle. El álbum fue lanzado el 31 de marzo de 2008 con el sencillo "Wait a Minute (Just a Touch)", sencillo lanzado en noviembre de 2007. El segundo sencillo, "American Boy" con la colaboración de Kanye West alcanzó el primer puesto en el UK Singles Chart y fue lanzado el 24 de marzo del mismo año. Los remixes de "American Boy" y el álbum Shine fueron eliminados del iTunes Store de Estados Unidos por Atlantic Records para seguir la decisión que habían tomado anteriormente con Kid Rock, de no vender su último álbum en iTunes o en ninguna otra tienda digital. Finalmente fue agregado el 9 de septiembre[1] después de una larga caída en ventas y de que el sencillo American Boy cayera en los rankings Billboard. Shine fue certificado Disco de Oro en el Reino Unido, denotando 100.000 copias vendidas. El álbum ha vendido 233.000 copias en Estados Unidos hasta enero de 2012.[2]
