JAY-Z’s Roc Nation label just got a boost in the R&B department with the signing of 21-year-old singer Maeta, according to Variety. The rising Indianapolis-raised, Los Angeles-based artist will kick off the next chapter of her career with the release of her Habits EP on April 30.
“I can’t believe I’m officially part of the Roc Nation family!” Maeta said in a statement. “I am so thankful to Omar, Shari, and the rest of the team for embracing me and believing in my dream.”
This isn’t the first time Maeta has crossed paths with JAY-Z’s company. In October 2020, she appeared on the compilation REPRISE: A Roc Nation Album to benefit social justice efforts across America, collaborating with Grammy-nominated rapper D Smoke and Arin Ray on a song called “Common Sense.”
“Maeta has one of those rare natural voices that will stop you in your tracks,” said Roc Nation co-president Omar Grant. “When I heard her sing live for the first time, she already had the poise, presence, and instincts of a much more established artist. I’m so glad she is beginning her career at Roc Nation.”

Maeta has the same manager as H.E.R., Jeff Robinson, and has already worked with Compton rapper Buddy, Kaytranada and James Fauntleroy. She got her start posting songs on SoundCloud and Instagram as a teenager and dropped her debut EP Do Not Disturb in November 2019, before moving to the West Coast earlier this year.
Another Roc Nation co-president Shari Bryant added, “We are so happy that Maeta decided to join the Roc Nation family and allow us to help guide her career. We can’t wait for the world to hear her music and be mesmerized by her gorgeous voice like we continue to be.”
The upcoming EP will include her new single “Toxic,” which is a collaboration with rapper BEAM with production from Skrillex — watch the video below.
She has a beautiful voice.
she also has beautiful tits
Apparently she love them just as much as you—the way she keeps rubbing them…lol. Must be a recent purchase.
They are as real as they get, as she was born with those. Unfortunately, when any extremely talented female in this country (who is also well endowed) puts themselves in the public limelight to follow their dreams they also put themselves at immediate risk of being social media harassed by mysogynistic idiots and low life’s who lack talent themselves.. In Ms. Maeta’s case it will not matter because when all is sung and done it will be shown that she has the absolute finest Voice to hit R & B/Alt since Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys, and Keyshia Cole – in that order!!! And all the other Negative Bullshit won’t matter!!!???
All of them that you just named are hella light skin or 1/2 White. Thats an issue
This is the problem. Why does it matter what color she is? Keep on keeping racism alive you dummy.
I just like her breasts, I could care less about her music.
great i hope she fucks you over and ruins your label.
Stand by for a new Lemonade song from Beyonce!
????I was thinking here comes the remake of Becky wit the good hair
All of these new female artists sound the same! I think she is beautiful, but I hate that these new female artists are being created to look, sound and be essentially the same. Cookie cutter. We need a woman developing other female talent because I feel it wouldn’t be so formulaic. We need a modern day Sylvia Rhone.
roc nation is artists ruins agency and it takes one brutal artist to do the brutal revenge for others… 🙂
We wish you much Love and Abundance with your career. Always Shine Bright
I can barely overstand a word they’re singing. Is this ‘Mumble Singing’?
You correct auto, she is from the uk to not impress..autotune
He couldn’t find an authentic Black woman to sign? When Black culture gets stolen again who do we blame this time? I feel sorry for his Black daughters.
I think she is extremely talented and very very well put together , I would say she is a mixture of Alicia Keys and Sade far as looks and her voice sounds like a modern day Sada.
