Elijah [180 Gram]

Elijah Blake, THE TWO TIME GRAMMYr AWARD WINNING, MULTI-HYPHENATE ARTIST, RETURNS AS A MATURE AND DEFT STORYTELLINGVOCALIST ON HIS LATEST WORK, THE SELF-TITLED ALBUM, "elijah." The industry knows Blake as a celebrated and prolific songwriter whose pen has laced the tracks crooned by some of the world's most iconic artists - Usher, Rihanna, Alicia Keys,Justin Bieber, DIPLO, Mary J. Blige, Britney Spears and many more.Elijah's ardent fans - those enraptured by the soulful melisma and gritty groans that color Blake's voice and style in hues reminiscent of Prince and Hendrix - have been riding with him since he released his major-label debut, Shadows & Diamonds. On "elijah.", Blake invites his audience to delve into personal experiences and emotions, touching on themes of love and self-discovery.Folksy, autobiographical ballads like "Rainberry Woods" invites listeners into glimpses of Blake's not-so-easy coming-of-age in Southern Florida. The smooth-as-silk, symphonic R&B bangers,"Ghostbusters" and "Magic Moment," are as sonically emotive as they are personally vulnerable. The title of his album, "elijah.", is both a literal announcement and a profound way forward for an artist who has accomplished so much and, yet, might very wellbe entering an era of unbridled creativity and self-awareness, with his unique approach to songwriting and vocal delivery setting him apart. With a distinct musical style that blends R&B, soul, and pop elements, Elijah is creating some of the most lyrically and sonically dynamic music yet.For Fans Of:Miguel, Prince, Daniel Caesar, Frank Ocean
