New R&B artist, *Elaine has already made her mark by becoming the first independent female artist
in South Africa to reach number 1 on the Apple Music Album Charts with her
debut self-released 7 track EP *‘**Elements released
the EP with no external backing or label support, but rather with the help
of two university colleagues. At just 20 years old, she has shown the
perfect combination of charisma and creativity as a singer and songwriter
and this is why she is *Apple Music’s New Artist Spotlight* for Sub-Saharan
Africa this November.

On receiving this recognition from *Apple Music*, *Elaine

had this to say: *It is such an honour to be chosen as the Apple Music New
Artist Spotlight for November. It’s a great feeling to know that people
love my music. I appreciate the support from Apple Music, it’s truly
amazing, especially as an independent artist. Thank you to the amazing team
that has supported me in my career, and most of all thank you to everyone
that’s listened and supported my journey. I can’t wait for what the future
has in store.”*

*Elaine* fell in love with music at a very young age joining her school
choir. Singing solos at the age of 6 led her to win the Gold Medal in her
category at the 2014 World Choir Games in Latvia.

As a TrapSoul and RnB singer, her inspiration comes from artists like
Lauryn Hill and Beyoncé. The “*Elements

album showcases *Elaine’s* gift of knowing how to blend warm melodies with
sharply intimate lyrics. Keeping it real, she explores the meaning of love
in all its forms, seeing its expression as the key to a harmonious life.

The seven tracks delve into many aspects of relationships, ranging from the
need for devotion (“When We’re Alone”), to the innately human tendency to
doubt or distrust the love of others (“Say It”). The other tracks on the EP
are: “I/You”, “You’re The One”, “Changes”, “I Just Wanna Know” and “Risky”.

With over 50 million songs, Apple Music offers a free 3-month trial with no
commitment and is ad-free. Apple Music is available on iPhone and iPad and
also for download from Google Play for Android devices.
