It’s been 10 years in the making but a songstress Ella eyre is back and better than ever on his second studio album, Everything, in time.
Since signing with a record label at the age of 17, Ella has had a mixed journey in the music industry. He first made a name for himself as the mouthpiece of the years with emotional cuts including ‘waiting all night’ with judicial, ‘gravity with DJ Fresh, and ‘just got paid’ with Sigala. Alongside this, he released his own material including his brilliant debut album Oriental medicine back in 2015.
However, during lockdown Ella needed surgery on her vocal cords which left her in need of painting. Alongside this, he parted ways with his former label, took his masters, and started again. Now, 10 years after her heartbreak album, Ella is back with her all, over time And it feels like he’s never been away.
The 15-track album is the body of work that Ella’s visionary artist has done. An intoxicating fusion of soul, R&B, and retro funk, the album is full of emotion, vulnerability, and his powerhouse of unique energy. Previous releases of ‘Hell Yeah,’ Domino SZN’ and ‘Top of the Internet’ featuring Jay Prince gave fans a taste of what to expect, and the hits just keep coming as you listen to the album in its entirety.
Ella sets the tone with OpenER ‘Everything, in time’, which sums up its intensity from the start. This was the last track to be written about the album, but it is the perfect way to start this sonic journey as it covers where Ella is now and renews this brilliant singer. ‘Head on the ground’ featuring Tiggs DA writer and ‘Up on the Internet’ with Jay Prince mixing the groove and marking the only collaboration on the album, and the rappers add their own flow to the proceedings.
‘Domino SZN’ is full of beautiful RNB Groove while ‘Diamonds’ up the tempo on the record, as he looks for someone to make his heart skip a beat. Heartbreak is a recurring theme on the album, with ‘red flags and hearts of love’ calling out bad behavior in previous fires. One of the album’s highlights, the track darkens lyrically as questions of what red flags are brought up as symbols of love instead. It leads to weakness ‘it hurts there, where he continues to risk about the mysteries of love when the relationship ends.
While the album is mainly RNB infused, there are elements of exploration throughout ‘Kintsugi’ and ‘it’s not right that they are blind’, which are not different from Ella’s usual style. Both of these tracks take their own turn and it’s great to see the singer-songwriter continue to create a slightly darker sound. This article continues with ‘what about me’, a love song as Ella realizes that after years of putting others before others, she needs to put herself first.
This leads to ‘the little things’, a Sthezy-style early morning track where Ella talks about how sometimes all that matters in life is the little things, especially when everything feels like it’s weighty. In contrast, ‘Heal Hell Yes’ is a great singalong theme that sees Ella accept some of the questionable choices made. The contrast between the two sequels works but serves as a reminder that life is messy and that no journey is straight.
On ‘Loverman’, ella Skip the title of ‘That’s About Me’ is an artist who means freedom – she doesn’t need a man tonight. The track is loaded with brass elements, which continue to enter the bold ‘space’ from its large brass opening. The track is about empowering someone to ‘f*** you’, as Ella draws the line under a ridiculous past.
The album comes close with beautiful rain in heaven – Demo’, a gentle, vulnerable offering that really sums up the album’s mood. The track meters that life does not always go the way you want, and when ‘Paradise is not what it seems’, the journey you take will make you stronger than you can imagine.
all, over time It’s an irresistible and complete record and its strength lies in its ability to make you lose yourself in the melodies that evoke the melodies and the rich vocals of Ella. The album serves as a complete renaissance for Ella Eyre – A young woman, despite all the challenges she faces, stands stronger and braver than ever. The album is ‘good things happen to those who wait’, and Ella is just getting started.
all, over time it’s out now.
