Was later signed to Euro based Indie label Rehegoo Music Group in 2018 and released her debut EP #Bossbabe on Nov of 2018. Received positive critical acclaim from notable indie bloggers such as Bandcamp Diaries and IndieNation Blog. In early 2021, Maame cut ties with her indie label and returned to being a DIY artist. She later took a hiatus from music during the pandemic to focus on her mental health and other forms of artistic expression. She's had the opportunity to star in stage productions such as Sketchville with Arcade Comedy Theater in winter of 2022 and then was cast her first principle role as Harriet Tubman with Prime Stage Theater company's production "Harriet Tubman & The Underground Railroad" in January 2023. Then her most recent theater performance was with critically acclaimed City Theatre Company located in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania for "Native Gardens." Shortly after the end of the closing show for City Theater's production, Maame drove to New Castle, PA that same day to later perform a livestream show hosted by Good Vibe Entertainment at Local 724 Studio as her Singer-Songwriter comeback. After a 3 year hiatus and in a new city she instantly received new positive feedback from new fans and is working on a project with a couple of friends in the Pittsburgh music scene. Maame's dream of having a band has finally come true. Click "Learn More" for more info on P.E.W.S. (Prove 'em wrong Songwriter).
