ABOUT TANERÉLLE:
Musically, Tanerélle pulls time, space, darkness, light, lust, and love into her orbit. Tones and textures change like moods. One track may position her as a hungry seductress as she sinks into sparse bedroom R&B production, while the next will place her under the disco ball in the center of the dancefloor like some intergalactic club goddess bathed in bright lights. After stacking up over 100 million streams independently and earning critical acclaim, all of these elements coalesce on her 2024 Electric Honey EP [Republic Records].
She effectively shines a light on every side of herself…
“My mission is always to help facilitate healing, feeling, and celebrating,” she states. “When you listen to me, I want you to embrace all forms of yourself—the bright and beautiful parts, but also the parts that might be in the shadows. I hope this music leads you into more love for those around you, the world, and yourself.”
Growing up in Atlanta, Tanerélle fell in love with music at a young age. Her mother introduced her to the music of Stevie Wonder, Toni Braxton, Des’ree, DMX, and Lil’ Kim. Simultaneously, film transfixed her as she studied the scores of Matilda, A Goofy Movie, and more. “Being an only child, music and film were my escape,” she notes.
She pieced together Electric Honey in studios across Los Angeles and London. She leaned on inspirations as diverse as Tora, The Hicks, alt-J, and Beyoncé as well as movies and TV series, including The Gentlemen, Hunter x Hunter, and Catwoman. She also regularly retuned to a personal playlist entitled Electric Honey.
Tanerélle is definitely giving her extremes on Electric Honey, but she also has more to reveal.
“Whenever someone listens to a full project of mine, I want them to feel like they just watched a movie,” she leaves off. “I want them to feel satiated, empowered, sexy, hopeful, and inspired, but I also just want them to have fun. The overarching theme of this EP is kind of just being unapologetically me and embracing that. We are always evolving and growing.”
