Brooklyn rapper and entrepreneur, Young M.A, has announced her feverishly anticipated debut album, Herstory In The Making, for September 27th via M.A Music / 3D. The LP, a devastatingly personal look into the rappers life, will come on the 10-year anniversary of her brothers untimely passing to gun violence. M.A laments, “There isn’t a single day that I don’t think about my brother. He continues to motivate me; inspire me & this project will forever be dedicated to his legacy.”
With production from Zaytoven, Mike Zombie, Amadeus, NY Bangers and many more (full tracklisting below) the album comes in at 21 tracks, including recently released singles, “BIG” and “Pettywap;” the first of which has quickly accumulated 12 million plus views on YouTube and landed her on the home page of Triller for a #BIGchallenge receiving over 2K original video submissions in less than a week, while the latter is approaching gold status and has amassed over 70 million video views. Young M.A’s consistent grind of music and video releases since dropping her 3x platinum single “OOOUUU” has garnered the Brooklyn artist over 1 Billion streams on her catalog, magazine covers, TV appearances, and director credits.
“You’re gonna get the truth,” M.A explains of Herstory In The Making. “You’re gonna get the cocky joints, the slick talk joints where I talk my talk, but then I’m gonna get personal. Real personal. That’s why this album is called Herstory In The Making,’ because it’s about all sides of me.” Tracks like “Car Confessions” bring innermost life reflections from the driver’s seat. “I used to write music in my car a lot,” she adds, “and for some reason when I’m in my car I feel like the rhymes just flow and I can write one of the best songs ever. I wrote this in the car as well!” Others include an empowerment anthem about “women being happy with who they are and being independent, just loving themselves-not needing any man or woman to hold them down.” “People will hear this album and say, “I had no idea she was going through all that, I don’t put myself out there on social media. I save it for the music, and I write it all. This is all me.”
