Ella Mai Returns With a Love Letter to R&B
Ella Mai on The Art of Loving Out Loud
R&B has always had its poets, its truth-tellers, its dreamers. In this generation, Ella Mai stands firmly among them. With “Tell Her,” her latest single, she offers a love letter not only to romance itself, but to the genre that has given her a global stage.
The track, produced by Mustard, glides with familiar warmth yet feels strikingly new. Ella’s voice is confident but vulnerable, grounded but reaching—a mirror to the complexities of modern relationships. It is a reminder that to love is to risk, to demand, and to hope, all at once.
From her record-shattering breakout “Boo’d Up” to her platinum singles and sold-out tours, Ella Mai’s story has always been one of evolution. “Tell Her” continues that journey, signaling an artist who has grown into herself—unapologetically, beautifully, and with her heart firmly on her sleeve.
Love has always been Ella’s muse. But with “Tell Her,” she shows us something more: love as wisdom, love as strength, love as her truest song.
