Listen: Elliphant – Music Is Life

Although Stockholm’s Ellinor Olovsdotter – aka Elliphant – has been teetering on the sidelines of mainstream acceptance for some time, her trademark potty mouth and aggressive dancehall vibes consistently impress but the potential chart breakthrough that’s so deserved still at bay. Until now that is.
