MAYA: HIP HOP MC/DJ
"The art of MCing is a passion in which I strive to keep progressing. It enables me to express myself in a way no other art form can."
Twenty-six-year-old Maya is far from your average MC. One of Australia's sharper vocal talents, Maya brings the experiences and perspectives of her Mexican-Turkish background to local hip-hop culture. She has performed across Australia and internationally, and her two commercially released tracks feature regularly on Triple J.
"Performing is the best feeling in the world. I don't need drugs. I just get up there and let the music take over."
Her reputation for having one of the best live shows in Australian hip-hop, and ability to rock a crowd, has found her on stage next to many international artists including The Black Eyed Peas, Blackalicious, DJ Vadim and King Kapisi.
Maya also finds time to host Triple J's "Hip Hop Show" and facilitates youth workshops regularly at Police and Citizens Youth Clubs (PCYCs) such as Bankstown and Parramatta, where she is involved with songwriting and dance.
