U.K. native Ella Mai, an R&B singer and songwriter with a casually commanding voice, wasn’t exactly an unknown artist before DJ Mustard signed her to his 10 Summers label. Originally raised in southwest London, Mai moved to New York at the age of 12, then returned to England after she graduated from high school. In 2014, during her second stint in the U.K., she competed on The X Factor as part of a trio, Arize, that didn’t advance beyond the initial audition for the judges. The group broke up shortly thereafter. The following year, Ella Mai uploaded a four-track solo EP of originals to SoundCloud, but it was through her short clips of covers on Instagram that DJ Mustard found her. In January 2016, the producer announced that he had signed her, and the following month, she released Time, a poised EP of sleek, contemporary R&B. Featuring the Ty Dolla $ign collaboration “She Don’t,” the six-track release introduced an artist who could sing of fierce loyalty and ruthless spite in an incisive manner. Mai quickly followed up with two more EPs beginning with Change, followed in early 2017 by Ready, which completed the DJ Mustard-produced trilogy. Ready highlight “Boo’d Up” cracked the Billboard Hot 100 in April 2018.

*Personal life
Seal first began dating German model Heidi Klum in February 2004, shortly after she announced her pregnancy and end of relationship with Italian Formula One team manager Flavio Briatore.
Seal proposed to Klum on 23 December 2004 in a quinzee he had built on a glacier in Whistler, British Columbia.On 10 May 2005, the couple married on a beach in Mexico near Seal’s home on Costa Careyes. Every year during their marriage, Seal and Klum renewed their vows on their anniversary with close friends and family. About these renewals, Seal said in 2010, “Each year, Heidi and I get remarried. It’s a great party, but for about an hour, we go off on our own down to a private beach. We sit there with the kids and read vows to each other as the sun sets. It’s a very special moment to us.” In November 2009, Klum officially adopted Seal’s surname and became legally known as Heidi Samuel.
On 11 June 2009, Seal, on tour with his new album Soul, revealed, “It is nice to be in newspapers and magazines for something other than my marriage”. He said his marriage to Klum may take away the attention, but does not detract from what he loves doing: making music.In February 2011, Klum praised Seal for his good parenting skills.
“ When I first met Seal he had a kindness and compassion that was so sincere I knew he’d be a good father…But it wasn’t until Leni was born and we had our three other children that I grasped what a great dad he is…He has infinite amounts of love and patience for our kids…He puts me and the children first.[52] ”
Klum also remarked how lucky she was to have a husband like Seal.
Klum gave birth to Briatore’s daughter, Helene “Leni” Boshoven Klum on 5 May 2004 in New York City with Seal at her side. According to Klum, Briatore is not involved in Leni’s life, and Klum has stated emphatically that “Seal is Leni’s father”.
Seal is her only father figure and he has praised Briatore for keeping his distance and not disrupting Leni’s life.In late 2009 Seal officially adopted Leni, and her last name was changed to Samuel.The couple have three other children: sons Henry Günther Adeola Dashtu Samuel (born 12 September 2005), Johan Riley Fyodor Taiwo Samuel (born 22 November 2006) and daughter Lou Sulola Samuel (born 9 October 2009).[60] On 22 January 2012, Seal and Klum announced that they were separating after nearly seven years of marriage.Klum filed for divorce from Seal on April 6, but they remain close friends.Their divorce was finalized on 14 October 2014.
Seal and his then-wife Heidi Klum announced in June 2010 that they would be making a reality series on Lifetime titled Love’s Divine (after Seal’s song of the same name).
Seal was also a judge for the 10th annual Independent Music Awards to support independent artists careers, also a guest judge for America’s Got Talent season 12.
Obwohl die 1993 geborene Künstlerin zu den Hochzeiten des R’n’B noch sehr jung war, zieht sie ihre Inspiration aus den urbanen Klassikern. Diese interpretiert sie so erfrischend und überzeugend, dass die Hamurger Rap-Sensation es mit ihrem Rap/R’n’B Song „Bist Du Down“ geschafft hat, die internationale Presse mit einem deutschsprachigem Song zu begeistern. Ace Tee steht für die Wiedergeburt des R’n’B der 90er und erinnert an Größen wie Aaliyah und TLC. Das New Yorker Paper Magazine schrieb sogar über Ace Tee: „Rising german R’n’B star Ace Tee will make your day.“ Das spricht für sich.
