Eli Jae Prepares Debut Album with New Single ‘Your Body’

 

Squareball Entertainment’s singer-songwriter Eli Jae has dropped Your Body, the second single from his forthcoming debut album Soundtrack to Great Sex, further cementing his place as a compelling new voice in modern R&B. Following the warm reception of the album’s lead single Sexual Healing, which introduced the project’s sensual undertones, Your Body amplifies the narrative with a hypnotic blend of R&B, Afrofusion, and soul, showcasing Eli Jae’s knack for crafting immersive, emotionally charged music. The track, produced by renowned Nigerian producer LeriQ (known for his works with Burna Boy and Wizkid), is accompanied by a minimalist yet captivating visualizer.

Your Body is a sultry R&B groove that delves into the magnetic pull of physical attraction and unspoken chemistry, capturing the raw essence of desire without the need for overt dialogue. Eli Jae’s smooth vocals glide over LeriQ’s lush production, which features a slow-burning beat, layered with velvety synths, a pulsating bassline, and subtle percussive elements that evoke a late-night, intimate vibe. The song’s standout lyrics, “Your Body" is calling my body… I like it, don’t stop, girl,” paint a vivid picture of longing and connection, while additional lines like “Feel the heat, no space between, just you and me in this scene” deepen the track’s romantic narrative. At just over three minutes, Your Body strikes a balance between a slow burn and a bold celebration of physical admiration, making it an ideal addition to late-night playlists or quiet, reflective moments.

Eli Jae’s signature emotional clarity shines through, a trait that has defined his artistry since his 2023 debut single under Squareball Entertainment. His ability to fuse Afrofusion’s rhythmic roots with the soulful depth of R&B reflects his Nigerian heritage and his time honing his craft in Lagos, where he was discovered by the label known for nurturing talents like 1da Banton. Your Body builds on the sensual foundation laid by Sexual Healing, reinforcing the thematic direction of Soundtrack to Great Sex, an album Eli Jae has described in interviews as an exploration of love, intimacy, and emotional vulnerability through music. LeriQ’s production elevates the track, adding a polished sheen that complements Eli Jae’s heartfelt delivery, with fans on social media noting the “cinematic” quality of the beat and its “addictive replay value.”

With Your Body, Eli Jae continues to carve out a distinct lane in Nigeria’s competitive music scene, blending cultural influences with a global sound that resonates far beyond Lagos. The single’s early streaming numbers on DSPs reflect its growing popularity, with viral potential driven by its romantic lyrics and danceable rhythm. As Soundtrack to Great Sex draws closer, Your Body positions Eli Jae as a formidable talent, offering listeners a deeply immersive experience that bridges emotion, rhythm, and romance with effortless finesse.
