British artist Ella Rosa is a singer, songwriter, and storyteller drawing emotionally earnest inspiration from her own life experiences, ranging from the nuances of family and personal relationships to the trials and tribulations that come with pulling up roots and moving countries. The young artist started her career as an opera singer in Henley-on-Thames, England then slowly transitioned into R&B. With her admiration of artist like Erykah Badu, Amy Winehouse, Lauryn Hill and more, Ella paints the perfect picture musically through soulful vocals, underlined with jazz undertones, an apt metaphor for a resilient and upbeat approach to life as one of the “UK’s Top 50 Artists.” Recently the beloved Gemini musician has been collaborating with household names in the industry and garnering praise from outlets such as PAPER Magazine, GQ, Complex, Grimy Goods, Euphoria and FLAUNT just to name a few. Ella Rosa’s New EP “eff off, im fine” has a bright energy with topics on life, love, and change that can be compared to the likes of Jorja Smith, Kali Uchis and reminiscent of Sade, SWV and other R&B classics.
