From East London to timelines worldwide, Mayelli’s rise feels less like a breakout and more like a calling answered. Her voice carries the warmth of soul and the pulse of new-age R&B, built on honesty, edge, and effortless flow.

Since her first studio session at sixteen, when she wrote and recorded four songs in just over three hours, she has been chasing truth through sound. That same spark now fuels millions of streams and a growing global following, proof that soul still speaks in many dialects.

With viral singles like I Like Your Lies and show-stopping performances across London, Mayelli is shaping her moment in real time, one melody, one post, one stage at a time.

For our next installment of Verses & Vibes, CafeDeSoul presents Mayelli.
