, who already has a Tony and Grammy under her belt, is making her original music debut with anthemic single “The Good” from her upcoming album.
“The Good” is accompanied by a cinematic music video, directed by Mollie Mills and starring Erivo in a story about Black queer love. Erivo felt it was important to represent the nuances and intimacy of a relationship between two Black women, something she feels is often lacking in on-screen portrayals.
For Erivo, who recently portrayed Aretha Franklin in the series “Genius,” music is all about storytelling — which is why she named her debut album “Ch. 1 Vs. 1.”“In storytelling, chapter one and verse one is the way you always begin, and because I believe I’m a storyteller, that’s what I wanted to do with my music,” Erivo says. “That’s what this is about, just starting [and revealing] the human parts of me that you don’t often get to see.
