Ego Ella May announced her debut album “Honey For Wounds” with two beautiful singles “Give A Little” and “How Long 'Til We're Home”. “Honey For Wounds” take on on jazz, r’n’b, and neo-soul featuring collaborations and production from artists including Alfa Mist, Theo Croker, Ashley Henry, Andrew Ashong, Wu-Lu, Melo Zed, Joe Armon Jones (Ezra Collective), Tom Excell (Nubiyan Twist),  Wonky Logic (Steam Down), Oscar Jerome (Kokoroko), and Eddie Hick (Sons of Kemet).

“Give A Little’ is about being sick of your own sh*t, and hoping something will give and it will all make sense. It’s about feeling like something’s got to give… Like there needs to be a silver lining because why tf do I keep making silly mistakes in life”, she explained.

Watch below the video to Ego Ella May two new songs “Give A Little’” and “How Long 'Til We're Home” from her forthcoming debut album “Honey For Wounds”:

"The song is about feeling lost about your place in the world, it's about longing for somewhere that FEELS like home. I wondered where is home anyway? Too African for Britain, too British for Africa”, she explains her reflection in “How Long 'Til We're Home”  about growing up in London as the child of Nigerian immigrants.

Both songs follow-up "Girls Don't Always Sing About Boys", from the same album, which dropped last November. Anthology of her early songs called “So Far” was released in 2019 via Tru Thoughts.
