Before he was co-signed by Idris Elba and Kardinal Offishall, Emanuel would post covers of the Weeknd and Frank Ocean on YouTube. His debut album, Alt Therapy, sees the vocalist step fully into a lane of his own, exploring the range of the ability he showcased on his Juno-nominated EP of the same name. “I Been,” peels back the groove until there’s only a guitar, a sentimental string section and Emanuel’s tightly controlled falsettos and stacked vocal harmonies. Alt Therapy certifies that the crooner is now in the same league as the artists he once emulated.
