Her self-titled debut EP earned widespread acclaim, with The Guardian praising her “impressive range, artistic intelligence, and sonic talent.” She followed quickly with her sophomore project POISN, further cementing her reputation as a musical chameleon with a razor-sharp pen. Her rapid ascent earned her Rookie of the Year at the 2023 Galaxy Awards, and she was recently named to the prestigious NME 100 list of emerging artists to watch in 2025. As she continues to merge rap with a dynamic array of genres, Elestee solidifies her status as one of the most exciting new voices in contemporary African music.
