New music from Elle Varner who enamours listeners with a clever and venturous outing called Ellevation – an album which finds the stunning R&B star expertly helming songs that deliver substance and style in a manner that’s unafraid to take audiences off of well beaten paths.Throughout the album, Varner proves that she pays more than just lip service to her “singer/songwriter” title as her individuality and well rooted connection to each piece clearly shines through. She broadens her sounds by doing things like incorporating jazz-scat influenced vocal runs, picking arrangements that seemingly draw from folk, country, and bluegrass, and picking just the right moments to use her voice to fill the room to the rafters or drift subtly atop the music. My personal favorites include a theatrical and sunlit slice of self-love called “Be Encouraged“; a tinkling yet cathartic “drink away the pain” number called “Pour Me“ (which features Wale); an openly honest and unguarded trap-soul tune called “1 To 10“; and the vibrantly playful and kinda tongue-in-cheek album opener called “Coffee On The Roof“.

“It may have taken Varner some years to follow-up with Perfectly Imperfect — due to business and other personal reasons — but Ellevation was well worth the wait. In an age where some artists are pressured to follow a particular trendy sound to get recognition, Varner chose to stay true to herself. As a result, she delivered an impressive body of work …” – Keithan Samuels via RatedRnB.com
