Aja Malone - State of the Art

In a male dominated industry, many female MCs never have the opportunity to stand out. However, occasionally there comes a female MC that stands out from the rest. Aja Malone is Hip-Hop’s best kept secret weapon. While male lions hold the title of being "King of the Jungle", Aja’s role is the female in this jungle who holds the title as "The King of the Jungle’s Queen"….labeling herself thee lioness. Aja Malone began her career at an early age. Aja admired female MCs like MC Lyte and Queen Latifah, not just for their lyrical content but also for the presence, style and charisma on the microphone. Aja wrote her first rhyme at 10 years old, making it clear she was not your average little girl. Aja continued to rhyme in high school and college. Battling guys in the cafeteria, Aja quickly gained respect from her male counterparts. Aja has written over 3000 rhymes and recorded over 500 songs. One of Aja’s goals is to see more unity and respect amongst female MCs. She states, “I love all my lyrical sisters as I call them…there is enough room for us all, but you must know your position(s).” With her solid writing skills and charismatic flow, Aja brings the passion and versatility back to Hip-Hop. Aja is also the Co-Owner of Beat Box, a multimedia company that is fostering business and creative growth for musicians and artists.  Look for Aja to take Hip-Hop and the business of music from the U.S. to beyond, as the next generation of Hip-Hop.
