‘THE TRUTH’ ABOUT MAKA

‘Making this EP came as true and pure to me as anything I’ve ever done. I wasn’t trying to please anyone but myself’- Maka

If diversity is one of the reasons that have added value and made the Nigerian music industry unpredictable, worthy of commendation and increased curiosity outside the shores of the country, then Maka is one of the artistes making such things happen. This eclectic Nigerian soul singer has been hailed as “one of Africa’s best kept musical secrets.” But the secret is officially out now that she’s unleashed her debut EP, The Truth. Hip-hop DJ/producer, Teck-Zilla has provided the textured, multifaceted sonic groundwork for Maka to deliver her heart on a platter with each sincerely constructed track. According to Maka, “Making this EP came as true and pure to me as anything I’ve ever done. I wasn’t trying to please anyone but myself. Working with Teck-Zilla never felt contrived, we weren’t rushed or disturbed, and we had the freedom to create whatever we wanted. That’s where the title of the record comes from, in the sense that creating it was indeed true.”
