Raised on soul, jazz, rock, and reggae music, Mariama has blended her love for this music in her new work. With a mission to inspire and uplift all people, Mariama brings a new, fresh sound she describes as “contemporary R&B with splashes of world and rock music.” Highly influenced by the legendary Michael Jackson and countless pop icons, passion and heart are at the center of Mariama’s music and performance. With ear catching melodies, versatile music, an inspiring message, and a distinctive voice of pure range and power, Mariama Whyte is destined to flourish as an innovative and prominent artist. Keep your ears, eyes, and souls open...coming soon!
