Maya Amolo Debuts Her Stirring EP “Leave Me At The Pregame"
Maya Amolo - Leave Me At The Pregame
Nairobi based R&B singer, Maya Amolo continues to reach greater heights with the premiere of her debut EP “Leave Me At The Pregame”.
Leave me at the pregame is a 7-track EP in which Maya manages to put all the thoughts and feelings that she was experiencing and compares them to going to a club, when things end up going south wishing that you had just stayed at the pregame. Maya explains,
"You ever get to a party and you’re just like, “damn. I should have stayed my ass at the pregame”. I can’t find my friends, I’m too drunk, someone is fighting, someone is crying, I’m just plagued by all the things that I’ve been putting off and all the thoughts resurface when I’m alone, in a crowd, at the club, away from the warmness and intimacy of the pregame."
Maya takes us on her intimate journey to self healing where her exquisite penmanship explores the themes of self-sabotage, self-realization, toxicity, love and depression as she tries to tackle her daily experience.The constant regression to what hurt you despite knowing that you won’t progress is evident in “Puddles” as she says “Go back to playing in puddles, f*** around get too deep.”
