Following the release of his cover to Carl Thomas‘ “I Wish,” Elhae (@ELHAE) returns to the small-screen in the Damien Blue-directed visual for “In My Corner.” A standout single from installment three of the Motown vocalist ‘Aura‘ series, the sentimental clip underscores the romantic energy of the song, which evokes the trust and unwavering support of a loving relationship. Laced with romantic guitar licks, as well as the North Dakota-born and Georgia-raised singer/songwriter’s gentle vocals, the song spills out like an intimate letter. “I’ll give you my name, and everything that comes with it,” he sings over supple strings and tranquil percussion.
‘Aura III‘ is a sleekly cinematic, unfailingly earnest project filled with mesmerizing vocals, hypnotic production, and guest appearances from Rick Ross and Masego. Showcasing his delicately powerful voice and ability to oscillate between island-inflected bops and jazz-tinged romantic overtures, the project only reaffirms his status as an artist to watch. That designation was hard-earned through years of memorable collaborations, steady releases, and meaningful fan engagement. The songs have resonated, too—the Masego-featuring “My City” has over 8M streams globally, and the project as a whole nearly 20M.
