Elliphant is a popular Swedish singer, lyricist and rapper. The biography of a celebrity is filled with tragic moments, thanks to which the girl became who she is.
She lives by the motto "Accept your flaws and turn them into virtues." During his school years, Elliphant was considered an outcast due to mental problems. Having matured, the girl spoke publicly, calling on people for humanity, humanity and kindness towards others. But her virtue often borders on a challenge to society.
Childhood and youth Elliphant
The celebrity was born in colorful Sweden. Ellinor Salome Miranda Olovsdotter (real name of the singer) is Icelandic by nationality. The girl loves the place where she spent her childhood, focuses on the fact that she considers herself a patriot.
Ellinor was brought up in an incomplete family. Her mother was the only one who raised her. Often there was not enough money for what was needed. The celebrity recalls that the most expensive thing in the Ulovsdotter family was a stereo system. Ellinor grew up on the work of Frank Sinatra and Zappa. There was a large poster hanging on the wall in her room that featured a photograph of Lenny Kravitz.
Ellinor had no idols. However, she repeatedly said that she grew up on quality music. In her youth, the girl “wiped out” the records of Gwen Stefani and the American ska-punk band No Doubt to holes.
The girl grew up as a talented and developed child. However, her school biography was unsuccessful. The fact is that the doctors diagnosed the girl with Attention Deficit Disorder, Hyperactivity, and Dyslexia.
Hyperactivity did not go away by adolescence. Although the doctors insisted that the situation would soon improve. Ellinor could not concentrate on her lessons. At 15, she left school and went to live with her grandmother.
Some time later, Ellinor was taken by her grandmother on a three-week trip to India. This event and the emotions that the girl experienced in a foreign country changed her ideas about the world.
When Ellinor returned to Stockholm with her grandmother, she got a job as a waitress in a local cafe. After working for six months, she took the accumulated money and went to India for six months. There, by the fires, she began to sing with a guitar. The young girl liked the trip. She soon visited Germany, France and the UK.
Elliphant's creative path
In 2011, the aspiring singer met the talented musician Tim Deneuve. They soon returned to Stockholm together and enlisted Ted Krotkevski to work with them. Ellinor was in charge of writing the lyrics, and the young people at one time created the songs and hooks.
A year later, the singer presented her debut composition Tekkno Scene. The track was liked by music lovers and music critics. This gave a reason to start recording a full-length album. The studio album Good Idea was released a year later. He managed to repeat the success of his debut composition.
The created tracks nullified the boundaries between dance hall, dubstep and electro music. Music critics about the work of Elliphant speak like this: "It's a sweetish hip-hop with an aggressive presentation."
Then the singer had atmospheric duets. So, together with the Amsterdam trio Yellow Claw and DJ Snake Elliphant, she recorded one of the brightest compositions of her repertoire. We are talking about the track Good Day.

Fans of the singer doubted that she was of sound mind.
