Ella Mai released a new EP called ‘3’ the beginning of this month. This EP is the perfect example of R&B. She serves vocals on each of the 3 songs on this EP. She rides over the beat on “Hearts on Deck.” Showcasing her ability to flow like water on simple production and elevate it with her lyricism and vocals. The vibe on “One of these” is a 180 to the intro track. Giving us a Nelly furtado/Timbaland 2000’s track. She knows catchy, and she will do it every time. With her song “Boo’d Up” being known now as a R&B classic, Ella Mai has not stopped grinding and releasing that same type of energy. Making all the girls get in their feels and preaching from the heart. R&B has a very large umbrella that many sounds fall under and Ella Mai is hitting the summary of what R&B is on this EP. With Mustard behind the production, we hope to hear more of this sound from him as well as many more collabs with other female R&B singers, not just Mai. He’s very talented and knows what type of songs go with the many rappers and singers he works with. It’s refreshing to hear her vocals and I’m very excited to hear what’s to come!
