Quick Q&A with superstar – MAKEIDA

So we’ve only got 24 seconds so here it is… – Enjoy! (continue reading…)

Makeida is an exciting new artist taking clubs and radio stations by storm all across the world. Musichild Entertainment artist Makeida has released her first single “Sugar Love” from her debut album coming this summer entitled “Unstoppable”. Makeida has undoubtedly got the look, the artistic licence and the determination to succeed.  While it might seem like Makeida popped up out of nowhere, she’s anything but an overnight sensation. In fact, she spent years toiling away behind-the-scenes, writting tracks for label mates, and also played a significant role in the internet marketing of many stars like, Jay Z, Leona Lewis and even Susan Boyle, before being able to release her own music. “You really have to prove yourself and show your worthiness as a star with the way the industry is today.”

Makeida is indeed one of those rare artists working in music’s most lucrative genre who can write her own songs. “Singers writing their own songs is a dying art. We don’t think of R&B seriously any more, that’s what I want people to do,” she says. The 23-year-old, who grew up Makeida Ezekiel in London, has had a seemingly rapid rise, with her style and ambition earning comparisons with Beyonce .

“When I write my songs, I don’t really think of her (Beyonce) – but I’m a young hard working lady also, so it’s like we’ve got a lot in common,” she has said.  “I am Makeida,” she says, “the girl with the big voice and a whole lot of f****** nerve.”

She’s been singing professionally since she was 15 and, before becoming Makeida, she has worked with stars like Westlife, Leona Lewis, T Pain and many others. Makeida became an overnight sensation online, thanks to social sites like MySpace and Youtube. America, and the rest of the world, can’t seem to get enough of her.  “When I say I wrote the songs on my album I don’t mean I sat in a studio with a producer and a writer while they wrote it. I did the whole goddamn thing.”

To reach that goal, Makeida says she does “nothing but eat, breathe, sleep and live my work. I don’t have much time for boyfriends. I don’t party every night and get wasted. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

Musichild Entertainment artist Makeida has released her first single “Sugar Love” from her debut album coming this summer entitled “Unstoppable”. Makeida is an exciting new artist taking clubs and radio stations by storm all across the world.

Behold Makeida! Fresh out of London, UK, this do-it-yourself R&B-Pop queen is about to change the world one melody at a time. She makes her own clothes, writes her own tunes, and will soon enough shatter every dance floor from here to the USA. Makeida has the gift to grab you by the hand and pull you right into the spotlight along with her. It’s a shareable fame. The exclusion is gone. Isn’t this why they built dance floors in the first place? Makeida – Changing the world one melody at a time…

“The music is intended to inspire people to feel a certain way about themselves, so they’ll be able to encompass, in their own lives, a sense of inner fame that they can project to the world, and the carefree nature of the album is a reflection of that aura. I like to funnel interesting ideas to the rest of the world through a pop lens.” Stay tuned for more of our close encounters with Makeida.
