Elmiene

“This phase is really the beginning of Elmiene,” says the 24-year-old artist, born Abdala Elamin. “[It] feels like the first time I can really say with full confidence, every single thing I did on this project was intentional. Instead of like ‘I don’t know how I pulled that off, that was crazy!’” he laughs. It’s hard to believe that his voice wasn’t always destined for this path but, a poet-turned-accidental-artist initially, it was Elmiene’s very first song attempt that sparked the whirlwind start of his career. And his ascent to international soul prodigy status has been swift and captivating ever since. Before he knew it, he was soundtracking a Louis Vuitton show, gaining early fans in the likes of Benji B, Sampha, Stormzy and more and going viral online with covers of his favourite artists.
