“Music is universal. People will sing lyrics… just because of a feeling.” On the latest episode of #OpenSpace, Ella Mai sits down with Mass Appeal on the heels of the success of “Trip” and “Boo’d Up”, the latter of which had just set the R&B airplay record for most weeks at No. 1 by a woman. Her debut album, executive produced by the ever-versatile DJ Mustard, is out now, and in her chat with Mass Appeal she discusses wanting to work with J. Cole at some point, her goal with her self-titled debut and much, much more.
