South London's Ego Ella May is the future sound of neo-soul. Don't worry, you can trust us, we wouldn't lie to you. But in case you're a real person and need some sort of validation beyond the promise of someone you've never met, then you should listen to her new EP, Breathing Underwater, which we're premiering in full below. In Ella's own words, the EP represents "Diving without fear, and overcoming obstacles. When you think of breathing underwater, it's deemed impossible, so if you can conquer that (fear) then there's nothing else you can't do or achieve."And in our own words, it's an irresistible slathering of soul, electro, and R&B that is really doing a lot for my hangover right now.
