OOOUUU! Young M.A delivered one of the hottest records of late, with her now RIAA certified triple platinum single, “OOOUUU,” which has amassed over 75.2 million SoundCloud streams and 221 million YouTube plays in the past year. “OOOUUU” peaked as the #1 record on the Urban Music Charts and #23 on the Rhythmic charts, with over 126,000 spins at radio.

With the record tearing up the streets, M.A gained the support of many industry heavyweights with artists such as: 50 Cent, French Montana, Remmy Ma and Jadakiss adding remixes to her record and other A-Listers: Beyonce, Jay-Z, T.I., Snoop Dogg, Alicia Keys, Swizz Beatz, Cardi B, FunkMaster Flex, amongst many more, championing the record.

With M.A’s buzz and credibility building at a feverish rate, The Fader Magazine (March) and HighSnobiety (April) rewarded her with the covers of their recent issues, and NY Times Magazine included her in their ’25 Songs That Tell Us Where Music Is Going’ print feature.

M.A first stormed onto the music scene with what’s now over 9.5 million YouTube, and 90M+ Facebook views on her “Brooklyn Chiraq Freestyle” video. The 25-year old MC from Brooklyn, NY broke out in 2016, releasing her ’SleepWalkin’ as a free download on Datpiff. ’SleepWalkin’ has been viewed over 1.1M times, with over 254K downloads at Datpiff.

With mesmerizing freestyles and appearances on Funkmaster Flex’s Hot 97 show, Power 105’s ’The Breakfast Club’, Sway In The Morning, the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, the Wendy Williams Show….M.A has no shortage of believers and supporters. After performing at the MTV Woodies at SXSW (March, 2017); this summer M.A is nominated as “Best New Artist” by MTV for the 2017 VMAs and has appeared on both MTV’s Safeword and Wild N Out to further her national TV footprint.

Already amassing over 2.5 million+ followers on Instagram; 1.1 million+ subscribers at YouTube, with 350M+ video views, 916K followers on Facebook; 114 Million+ SoundCloud streams; few young artists are making such an impact.
