Waterofelegance has been involved in music since she was 6 years old, and the Jacksonville Florida artist released her first track, &#8216;Kiss&#8217;, in 2020, at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. From that point she has increased in confidence, with her talents and artistic individuality noticed by the likes of Shanice, and Montell Jordan. We can guarantee that Waterofelegance&#8217;s most recent single, &#8216;My First Love&#8217;, will likewise impress everyone who listens.<br><br>&#8216;My First Love&#8217; tells the complete love story of Waterofelegance and her life partner, and includes all the the key moments that brought them together more than 20 years ago. She shares about how and when they met; seeing him across the classroom and experiencing their unforgettable first kiss alone in the backseat of a car. The backing track unites in glorious R&amp;B with Waterofelegance&#8217;s vocal delivery, and together they share the distinctive internal feelings of falling in love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The video for &#8216;My First Love&#8217; features not just Waterofelegance, but her first love; her now husband. Their on-screen chemistry and deep affection permeate the music video, and Waterofelegance sings from her heart, causing us to also fall in love with both of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Find out more about Waterofelegance and her music online on <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/Therealwaterofelegance\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/Therealwaterofelegance\/\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a>, and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@waterofelegance\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@waterofelegance\" target=\"_blank\">TikTok<\/a>.
