Dakari Eli, Urban Magazine’s editor-in-chief, released a sensual video to accompany her critically acclaimed single “Why Him?” on Thanksgiving.
“Why Him?” was created not out of sadness per se, but out of utter disappointment. How can two people make love to the point of spiritual elation only to have one of them sabotage it out of fear,” She explains. “It’s knowing the depth of the connection that was felt so profound by one person was ruined by the lack of emotional maturity of the other.”
The first song from her forthcoming project Black Dove Blue Song premiered on VPR Radio and is currently available on Spotify, Apple Music and Tidal with the video now on YouTube.
“Why Him? is a soft and sultry ballad that unveils a story of heartbreak and despair. Anyone that’s ever been hurt in a relationship can connect with Dakari’s passion and pain that she expresses so beautifully through this song.” – Qiana The Goddess, VPR Radio
Outside of her role at Urban Magazine, Dakari Eli is the host of The Bigger Picture with Dakari podcast as well a freelance makeup artist and accomplished photographer.
