Louisiana artist, Maya Angelle, combines classic soul influences with the urban contemporary sounds of today. Born in Jefferson Parish, LA., she was raised by a family of singers and musicians who provided early exposure to gospel music, jazz, and funk, which she would go on to blend with her own influences Lauryn Hill, Fantasia, Nas, and J. Cole. She embodies the originality and rich lyricism that is lacking in some of today’s latest contemporary music. Maya has been said to take her creativity within her music very seriously. She says, “I take my time with my music; it has to be something I feel. When I feel it, I know someone else may equally relate.”
A singer/musician since childhood, Maya was active in her church choir before she started making her own music. Her first official EP released in October of 2015 entitled Heart of A Lion, quickly following with the Late Night Sessions EP in May of 2016, both speaking of love and heartbreak. Late 2017, Maya Angelle released her single “The Real Me,” following with her single “Ice Water” in late 2018. In 2019, Maya released three EPs entitled Emotions, Mashed in the Covers, and ART.
Her unique sound, that has been said to be incomparable with other artists, has established a fan base who seems to describe her as knowing how to “connect her thoughts through her lyrics and still make them original.” Some have even stated that “She has a deeper vibe than what’s being put out right now”. When asked to choose one word to describe herself, Maya Angelle says that “lyrical” would fit best.
