Tanerélle, the sensational R&B songstress from Atlanta, has officially inked a deal with powerhouse label Republic Records, home to music legends like Ariana Grande, Drake, and The Weeknd. “After eight incredible years as an indie artist, I’ve found my musical sanctuary with Republic Records—a place that aims to boost, not change, my art and ambitions,” shared Tanerélle on Instagram. Overflowing with gratitude, she added, “Words can’t capture my emotions right now, but a huge shoutout to my family, friends, and team who’ve supported me through thick and thin, and to every fan who’s ever hit play on my songs.”
Ken Jarvis, Republic’s Senior Director of A&R, gushed over the new addition to their roster, telling Billboard, “Tanerélle brings a clear and compelling musical vision. It’s thrilling to work with someone who’s as driven and savvy as she is. We’re stoked to see how far we can go together!”
The cherry on top? Tanerélle’s fresh EP, ‘Electric Honey.’ This eight-track treat features collaborations with talents like Sabrina Claudio and rapper Foggieraw, and includes the standout tracks “Better Days” and “Let Me In.” The EP combines the genius of producers like Slimwav, Jesse Boykins III, Midi Jones, Dazy, and Machinedrum.
A highlight from the EP, the Dazy-produced track “Blink,” explores the mysterious symbols in Tanerélle’s dreams against an oblivious world. She belts out, “I keep having dreams where I start to scream / But no one hears a thing / Paintings start to sing, wonder what they mean.”
Wrapping up the release, Tanerélle took to Instagram: “Electric Honey is now out, and I couldn’t be prouder of this journey. A massive thank you to every brilliant mind that brought their magic to this project, helping us build a world of unlimited sounds and heartfelt creativity. What a blast and a blessing!”
