If Ella Mai’s “Boo’d Up” isn’t your top R&B song of 2018, it’s probably nestled in your top five. The hit record gave Ella the longest-running No. 1 by a woman on Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay Chart this decade with an astounding 14 weeks of dominance.
The British-born singer-songwriter is using the momentum spawned by her 3X platinum, single to begin the rollout for her studio debut album, which will be self-titled.
Billed as a “throwback R&B album” and executive produced by DJ Mustard, the project will be released come Friday, October 12, via 10 Summers/Interscope Records and fans can pre-order the album and receive the singles “Trip,” Naked” and of course, “Boo’d Up.”
To support the album, Ella Mai is embarking on Bruno Mars’ 24K Magic World Tour and could potentially land a couple of honors at this year’s American Music Awards.

i coulda swarn she already had a full length album out a year or 2 ago.. unless they’re tryna “clear history” and make it seem like this is her proper debut
I think it was an EP.
She’s put out 3 eps since 2016
ahh, mighta been all 3 EPs combined on Spotify or some shit
“Boo’d Up” is a nice R&B jam. I had no idea DJ Mustard was behind it. I’m so used to hearing those repetitive “Hey! Hey! Hey!” sounding beats that were inescapable in 2014.
Another one hit wonder in the making unfortunately. I hope she gets bigger tho without any drama or dating rappers. I can’t think of any RnB chic besides Bey and RiRi, in past 10 years or more who can remain relevant.
she already has another “hit” buzzing on the Radio called “Trip”, so you wrong on that one.
Best New R&B Artist awards goes to Ella Mai thanks to remixes from Jacquee , T- Pain , Plies , Nicki Minaj , Migos , and many more artists she’s the Silkk The Shocker of the Year
None of those remixes sound better than the original, She is more talented than all those people you named
Ella Mai got some sexy lips and she is just sexy period I would love to have her in my life
I would f**k the s***t outta her
(Gives Poot butt a high five) Wouldn’t we all.
why would you that’s rude.
Seems a little late to be dropping the album now. Her label should have taken advantage of her hit single, unless she has some more hits, but I haven’t heard any yet.
Trip???? is a hit
Can’t wait
i love your music great things more music more fans remember that i will become a singer just like you i hope thank you so much p.s. huge fan remember me.
You know it’s actually nice to see a photo of a female artist not in her underwear lol. Seems like to sell they always feel the need to have their tittys and ass out. Even when they wack .
she’s gorgeous and her music’s not bad. wifey material
Is this the chick that sent a cease and desist to an internet rapper cuz his remix was getting more shine than her original?
I’ll give her a listen. If you reading this check out IAMDDB she’s another sexy/talented British r an b singer/rapper… Peace y’all
A “throwback R&B album” huh? Interesting, I’ll give it a listen.
