Ella Mai Biography

Ella Mai is a Grammy Award-winning, English, R&B singer-songwriter known for her single "Boo'd Up."

Her singing career began at the British and Irish Modern Music Institute in London in 2014, during which time she auditioned as part of a trio on the 11th season of The X Factor. In 2015, she uploaded a four-track solo EP of originals to SoundCloud titled Trouble and was discovered on social media by American record producer DJ Mustard and signed with his record label, 10 Summers Records.

From 2016 to 2018, she released three EP's on the label, including Time, Change, and Ready.

Her self-titled debut studio album was released in October 2018 and featured the singles "Boo'd Up" and "Trip." In 2019, "Boo'd Up" was nominated for two Grammy Awards: Song of the Year and Best R&B Song, winning for the latter, as well as Mai herself being nominated for British Breakthrough Act at the 2019 Brit Awards.

"Boo'd Up" would go onto to win the 2019 Billboard Music Award for Top R&B Song. In 2019, Mai won the Billboard Music Awards for Top R&B Artist and Top Female R&B Artist. Apart from her music, Mai also performed a sketch on Nickelodeon's "All That" (which aired on 27 July 2019) called "Boo'd Up", a paranormal parody of The Dating Game, in which she played herself as a contestant looking for a ghost to haunt her family home, but instead of choosing the three suitors offered, she chose her former ghost who came back and she forgave him.

In 2020, Mai received her third nomination for the Grammy Award for Best R&B Album for her self-titled debut at the 62nd Grammy Awards.

In 2020, Mai released the single, "Not Another Love Song". In 2022, she released "DFMU" and Mai released her second studio album Heart on My Sleeve. The album debuted at number 15 on the Billboard 200 making it her second top 20 on the chart.
