"Meet Amea, the Newest R&B Addition to San Antonio's Music Scene"

You know that feeling you get when you discover music that’s so good you’re torn between either jumping on Facebook to share your found treasure or keeping it to yourself like you’re Gollum from The Lord of The Rings whispering “my preciousss”?

Amea, which is an acronym for the full name Ayanna Moriah-Eliza Allen, released a six-track EP called Baggage Claim last year and has basically produced those complex aforementioned feelings inside me. For only having three actual songs to listen to on this collection of music (the other three are a skit, intro, and outro) the 24-year-old R&B singer proves that three songs is all she needs to let you know that she’s made of magic.

Born in Oklahoma, Amea grew up in Ohio but eventually moved to Plano, Texas where she graduated high school. The singer told the Current she got her taste for performing through singing in church and playing violin and snare drum in school before moving to San Antonio in 2013 to attend UTSA. Now in a graduate program studying sociology, Amea has been breaking into the regional music scene with a sprinkling of local shows as well as two official South By Southwest showcases this past March.

Even though Baggage Claim came out almost a year ago, the rich quality of the engineering combined with Amea's lush vocals make for a blend of R&B that doesn’t sound like it’s local at all. If any of the tracks showed up on the radio next to artists like Kehlani or J. Cole, the stuff Amea's putting out would hold up. Maybe that sounds like a stretch to you, but that's what happens when your EP is produced by former WZKD and Milli Mars collaborator CJ Stephens, who for the last few years has been a professional songwriter and producer for Sony/ATV publishing.

“I went to her (Amea's) Soundcloud and said who the hell is this,” Stephens tells the Current. He says that once he found Amea's music, he couldn’t stop listening to it and eventually contacted the singer to collaborate.

From the bounciness of “Foolish” to the chilled out “High” (which is the perfect track to add to your road trip mix, btw), Allen’s vocal performance throughout Baggage Claim is nothing short of remarkable. With an upcoming show at Paper Tiger with “Selfish” singer PNB Rock, a tour to kick off in July and more music in the works, Amea might end up being your new favorite R&B singer sooner than you think.

Thursday, May 18, 8pm, $15, Paper Tiger, 2410 N. St. Mary's St.

Exclusive Q&A With AMEA As She Releases Mysterious New Music Video For 'VayCay'

July 1, 2017|Lucy Lerner

AMEA now has a new mysterious music video to accompany the atmospheric and memorable song 'VayCay'. Oklahoma born and Ohio raised singer-songwriter, AMEA, is the woman behind such irresistible tracks such as MTV Cribs Edition, 'Rain Dance' and last year's EP 'Baggage Claim'. Not just a singer-songwriter, but also a rapper, producer and engineer, her sound is a sophisticated mix of RnB and Neo-Soul with a crisp, contemporary style.

Following an exclusive screening at the Riffs & Reels Music Video Showcase last week, AMEA and director Matt Buikema debuted their highly anticipated music video for AMEA’s single 'VayCay'.

“VayCay has not only been a fan favourite since it dropped back in 2016, but the song personally holds a lot of meaning to me as well,” explained AMEA. “When I found out I’d been accepted into Riffs & Reels and paired up with Matt, it instantly felt right. I knew we were going to make an amazing video together.”


The music video grabs you from the initial shot and is very visually appealing with an interesting, mysterious narrative. Where is the protagonist driving to then running with panic on her face? Who is the figure on the motorbike? It all comes together with 'VayCay' as a lush backdrop where forward-thinking RnB, soul and hip-hop collide over a luxuriously chilled tempo with electronic pulses, languid rapping and honest lyrics. All this illustrates the character's efforts to find clarity and peace amongst confusion.

“I need to clear my mind, centre my soul but you don't understand this ain’t about you (this ain’t about you) You say you need new space, time to erase all the pain and this ain’t about me (this ain’t about me)”

AMEA describes the video’s overall meaning as open-ended, “but there’s still an underlying message that encourages reflection,” she clarifies. “Usually with conflict, we try to either deflect blame and emotions on other people or things, or we internalise and let it fester. All the while, the solution is to take a more honest look at ourselves and the situation at hand, so we can recenter, refocus and reconstruct. It may seem like a simple concept, but it’s not always easy to enact when you’re overcome by negativity.”

Prior to its public launch, 'VayCay' was placed as a finalist in the Riffs & Reels Music Video Showcase (a Texas filmmaker competition hosted by Santikos Entertainment, San Antonio Sound Garden and Alamo City Studios). AMEA will continue her summer tour before the release of her next album in late 2017.

We delved into the mind of this creative and talented artist. Take it away AMEA:

Describe your sound to new listeners

My sound is a compilation of energies and experiences from a curious mind and spirit. I would describe my sound as cinematic and versatile.

Tell me about your new music video 'VayCay'

My new music video is a classic struggle of self-realization that transcends time and place. The director and I wanted to express the many narratives encompassing this through a chase that inevitably leads to oneself.

Did you have the visuals in mind when you were writing the song?

This song particularly, no.

You're a woman of many talents from singer-songwriter, rapper, to producer and engineer. Is there anything that comes more easily to you or that you enjoy doing most?

I really enjoy writing the most. Experimenting with how words and melodies can marry with produced sounds is like a puzzle to me. I love it.

Your music is very multi-layered - how do you go about writing it?

It really all depends on the origins of the song. Some songs I will listen to an instrumental and try to construct a world around it. Typically, I have songs or melodies in my head that I hope to create a world around it with a producer, musician, or myself.

Earliest musical memory?

As a kid in Columbus, Ohio, my Dad would always take us to the library. I remember being like 5 and getting nursery rhyme cassettes and listening to them for days haha. My big brother was listening to music he would discover with his friends and I would just be nosy, trying to sneak and listen to whatever they were listening to. This lead me to 5th grade when I decided to have rap battles with my friends during recess.

Who inspires you?

My family inspires me. From blood relation to chosen relation, my family has always supported my strange life paths and encouraged me to stay learned in all I do.

Favourite venue to perform and why?

That is really tough. Every performance brings a new energy, new experience, and new faces. I treat every performance like my last so it's tough to choose.

Is there a lyric or track that is particularly meaningful to you and why?

My song “Interl(u)de” helped me gain the confidence I didn’t have at the time to all around be me. From production to lyrics, to delivery, I love that song. It may not have a lot of plays, but for me, that song is everything to me.

What are the biggest challenges of being in the music industry?

Everything is a challenge but I was raised to give my all, not give up.

What keeps you awake at night?

I sleep pretty well as of late, rest is vital to me. However, writing songs or wanting to finish them in the moment will keep me awake.

What book has changed your life?

I’d like to say, “Year of Yes” by Shonda Rhimes.

What's a typical day for AMEA?

During the week, my days are typically full of immense thought about our social surroundings. I wake up, drink some tea or water. Watch the news with my girlfriend, head to campus where I am assisting with some research and drafting my own. Try to get in some form of a workout in, then get to making, drafting, or practising some music. I always talk to my parents daily. I like to spend time collaborating with artists, even if it's just through discussions I like to have artists over to figure out how what we are doing as individuals can shape the world around us.

Dream collaborations?

Miguel, Missy Elliott, Janelle Monae, Jidenna, Kanye West, Tiara Thomas, Adam Levine, Drake, Kelela, Jazmine Sullivan, H.E.R, ABRA, Andre 3000, Erykah Badu, and Fleetwood Mac.

What is your go to album at the moment?

At the moment, Pretty Girls Like Trap Music is my go to album.

Are you heading to or performing at any festivals this year?

I am wanting to perform at some festivals this year. Right now, for leisure and experience I really want to go to The Essence Festival and AFRO PUNK Fest in Brooklyn.

Tell me something people don't know about you

I love to spontaneously travel. Road trips are always a refreshing experience for me.

What's next for AMEA?

I want to intertwine my love for theatre with my live performances more. I’ll be touring in early July around Texas. I am finishing an album as well. I want to get into film more as an actress. I plan to start writing songs as well for other artists. What’s next is what’s next - Britz n Beatz


"AMEA:Dealing in matters of the heart"

We really like AMEA. I mean really like her. She knows music and wine. How can we not be a fan of this talented young lady.

Inspire. Love. Dream. A beautiful message intended to be paired with a smooth dark cabernet sauvignon. AMEA has completely immersed herself in the Austin/San Antonio music scene, and has worked tirelessly to spread her inspiring message of love. She absorbs the sounds that have molded our generation to shape her message. From Prince to Paramore, AMEA is truly inspired by anything she hears.

For her debut EP entitled “Intimacy”, AMEA takes us down the oh-so familiar road of love, heartbreak, and finding oneself again. “Intimacy” is simply about vulnerability. A trait that seems to be lost in our social media driven generation. She seeks to teach her listeners that being comfortable and vulnerable can go together, and are essential in any healing process.

Dealing in matters of the heart is AMEA’s strength, and we expect the same with her winter mix that is projected to be released during the holiday season, and will be available for streaming on her SoundCloud – ameamusic. - Vibes And Vino


"AMEA"

AMEA Born in Ohio and raised in Oklahoma City, AMEA is a budding force to be reckoned with. The 24 year old R&B newcomer got an early start in her passion for music and has fostered her talents in San Antonio, Texas. *Tell me about growing up and how you found music.* Growing up my mom sang and my dad played music. I was always around musicians, and even traveled in a children’s choir. During my undergrad, I moved to San Antonio to finish up school and immediately met someone who was interested in music the way I was. So, I stayed in Texas and kept going with it, I started producing and I’m still experimenting. *Who are some of your biggest artistic influences?* Prince, Miguel, D'angelo are huge inspirations for sure. But my influences range from Fred Hammond to Outkast, Maroon 5 to Pink. I grew up in a Christian household, but starting diving into non-secular music while in high school. *What are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced as a budding artist?* I think my biggest challenge is organizing my thoughts and finding ways to execute. *Give me the lowdown on /The Colour Series./* Yeah, so the series is just basically songs that introduce you to who I am, how I’m feeling and how I deal with a lot of things. I think they’re things that people would be able to relate to. *What does the South mean to you?* That’s something I’m honestly still trying to figure out. There so much history here in the South, and so much to be found. To me it has always meant family. The South is like a gold mine full of untold stories. *In the coming year, AMEA hopes to continue her musical pursuits in hopes of championing diversity in both academia and music. * “I just want to spread my ideas and collaborate be able to express my individuality. Even though individuality is ripped from people of color, there are many narratives. Unity is better than separation.” *@MINDOFAMEA* *INSPIRELOVEDREAM.COM* *WORDS / AMARIE GIPSON * *COVER ART / DAVID MARTI - Mud Magazine


"The Voice That Keeps on Giving: Getting to Know AMEA"

If there is someone that has an unforgettable beautiful voice it definitely has to be AMEA, an R&B singer originally from Oklahoma now residing in San Antonio as she finishes her Master's degree in Sociology. 
AMEA has been singing for all her life as she has been raised by creators. Her mother also sings and her father is an artist. She got involved with the children’s choir at her church at only three-years-old and has been around music ever since. She has taken these past two years to experiment with her voice and be an independent singer. 
Getting her degree in sociology has helped her design her structure when creating a new song. She takes what she knows about studying social groups and patterns and articulating people's narratives to convey what she wants to get out of her music. Her music is meant to relate to as many people as possible and she does so by understanding peoples’ perspectives. To her, music is in peoples narratives so she wants to pressure the sociological factor artistically, academically and scholarly.
A lot of her focus is on R&B and soulful music, but that is not all she does. She does whatever she feels. She might rap or produce, whatever she feels — “I try to get my hands into everything, experiment and create,” she says. 

Her goal is to make dope stuff with people and keep growing as an artist. She loves meeting different artists and learning new cultures. She is always down to collaborate with new people and create new things. AMEA believes it is important to do so as it will always be a positive outcome since they are all trying to have these “mind trips.” She has a long list of people she would like collaborate with such as, Brandy the R&B queen, Miguel, Prince if he was still alive (may he rest in peace) and many others. Miguel is one of her greatest inspirations, she has been following his movement since 2010-11. She loves how he experiments with instrumentation and production.
“If I could just sit in a studio with him for like three hours and talk about life and jam, that’s all I need,” she says, “he is one of the first people in our generation to really just be totally different; people don't even realize how influential his sound is.”

“Keep dreaming, keep loving, this world kinda sucks but it is also beautiful and great things can be accomplished, believe there is love.”
She is big on instrumentation when it comes to her production. Some of her favorite groups are the Doobie Brothers, Earth Wind and Fire, Maroon 5 and Outkast. She even likes country! Anything with heavy instrumentation is pleasurable to her ear. Especially the guitar. She loves the guitar, even though she cannot play it. However, she is talented with other instruments like the drums, violin, and piano. 
Some of her most popular and highly played songs are “VayCay,” “Foolish” and “High.” VayCay has 5,000 plays on SoundCloud; she says she didn't really like it when she put it out since it was very random. Nevertheless, people really enjoyed this song because of the feeling conveyed through that track. “Its what I felt,” she says, “an emotion people don't want to feel at times, that vulnerability of not understanding life.” She went on to talk about how this year had a lot of battling. When she wrote VayCay it was a start of roughness and she wasn't too sure about the song, especially since it was a FREESTYLE, but people felt it and that’s what got it so many plays. "Foolish" was the first song her mom actually liked so she holds that one dearly to her heart. "Foolish" and "High" make “feelings, scenarios and situations.” They are both produced by CJ Stephens who she met just this year. She says people really felt these songs and again, the reason why they are the most well known. 
To AMEA music does set a tone depending upon the person. People observe whatever energy is produced from what they are listening to. She mentioned how the songs her and CJ made this past summer have an energy that people relate to. They typically test situations and see if someone does or doesn't connect with it. She always tries to write on what message she wants to send with the instrumentation she has going on in the background. She makes sure to have the right tone with the right message. 
“Experimenting with whatever I think is cool,” she says. 

Which ties into something she likes to preach: TO EACH HIS OWN. She believes everyone should do what they like and that what is for you is for you and what is not is not. There should not be judgment or a fuss about what you’re into or not into — “peace and love,” AMEA says.
“Everyone is where they're supposed to be in that time,” she says, “2 years ago I was freestyling now I’m going on tour.”
She has toured around Texas in cities like Austin, Dallas, Houston and San Antonio. Her dream is to be able to tour overseas in places like Brazil, Sweden and the United Kingdom. She wants to meet as many artists as she can and branch out. 
She sends a message in which she says, “keep dreaming, keep loving, this world kinda sucks but it is also beautiful and great things can be accomplished, believe there is love.”
Her beliefs are to not be an asshole, understand we are all people at the end of the day, we all have things going on and we must be aware of that. 
“I try to be conscious of other people, try to practice to step in other people’s shoes and see what they're going through,” she says. 
Her persona makes her and her music that much more beautiful. Once you listen to her voice you will fall in love with her craft.
Reason to why you should care about AMEA is because she cares about you, she tries to express as many narratives and stress that everyone has a voice and everyone should be able to express themselves. 
A little message from AMEA herself: “THANK YOU TO EVERYBODY WHO HAS CHECKED OUT MY MUSIC AND CARED FOR MY MUSIC. YOU KEEP ME GOING AND YOU ARE WHY I AM GONNA KEEP MAKING MUSIC THANK YOU!” - Modern Life Magazine


"Stream San Antonio Singer AMEA's "Baggage Claim""

When Amea dropped her “Vaycay” single two months ago, it seemed like more than just a song. Yes, the singer-songwriter-lyricist from San Antonio made a breakup track; but it was also audio catharsis, her trying to avoid becoming the “Bag Lady” Erykah Badu once sang about by rebuilding what was destroyed.

But it seems the San Antonio songbird has more luggage to let go of. Amea dropped her latest EP, Baggage Claim, earlier this week; and has put the full project on Soundcloud for fans and new listeners to stream.

Seven tracks deep and produced solely by Amea herself and CJ Stevens – the same man behind the boards for “Vaycay” – Baggage Claim is easily listening, with a few dips in nostalgia tossed in by way of “skits” from childhood shows. The EP’s “Intro” alone, for example, bears an audio clip of the narrator from The Powerpuff Girls. Bamsworth Belli is Baggage Claim’s sole feature, appearing alongside AMEA on “Foolish.”

But although it’s short, there’s obvious purpose in the way in which AMEA has built the EP. There’s a reason the “Intro’s” audio clip kicks things off with the Townsville narrator proclaiming, “Today’s gonna be special and no dark cloud’s gonna darken my doorstep!”; but then disaster hits, and that spills into “Foolish,” as AMEA vents over the implosion of a relationship. The island-tinged “High” allows Amea’s lovely voice to bounce along an instrumental that’s all but summer-ready. But it’s “Quiver” that’s Baggage Claim’s strongest track. The seductive track takes off from the minute Amea coos, “I can grant your wishes” over Jay Alba and Raul Mata Jr.’s live instrumentation, and entrances the listener in a nearly four-minute slow burn. - Day and A Dream


"Sono and AMEA light up the strip"

Amea’s stage presence, voice, song writing expertise, everything is in a category all its own here in San Antonio. Amea can sing, for sure, but she’s also an entertainer – a star. Amea is the complete package of artistry. She has vision but also business savvy that’s demonstrated by those she surrounds herself with and the steps they’ve taken to help further her career. Sobre Sound has seen her perform before and has had the chance to speak with her on more than one occasion, and at MusiConnects on Saturday night she delivered another special performance. I walked in as she performed her hit "VayCay," and saw a crowd entranced, singing along. Amea brought Bamsworth Belli on stage to join her on the song "Foolish" and then followed up by crooning the ladies in crowd and even bring them up on stage with her. If the ‘devil is in the details,’ then these random nights of regular gigging in her hometown are the details of an incredibly promising career in music. Watch out world. San Anto’s coming for you.

You can listen to Amea's new EP "Baggage Claim" on Spotify. - Sobre Sound


"AMEA:Baggage Claim EP"

AMEA is a Jill of all trades. She’s a singer, a rapper, a song writer and about production she had this to say, “When I produce myself, it’s me in my room locked away for hours…maybe even days. I just don’t have time for that anymore but I want to be able to do more co-production.”

Enter San Antonio’s CJ Stephens who produces like he knows there are 25 keys on his midi controller and he intends to get the most out of each of them. He produces like he knows there’s an infinite amount of plugin, kit and filter combinations to manipulate musically. He produces like he knows that Logic isn’t just a one size fits all trap kit. As a result, it’s hard to label his sound or his style as any one thing.

AMEA and CJ Stephens. When their powers combine, on some Captain Planet shit, you get the three song, Baggage Claim EP. When you hear the final result of the time they spend together in the studio , it sounds like a relationship years in the making that has been nurtured over the course of a numerous amount of sessions. But when you take into account that they didn’t even know each other before they began working together, it makes what they’re churning out musically that much more impressive. “Somebody on my timeline tweeted about what good artists are in town and he mentioned her. I found her Soundcloud and contacted her that day.” is what CJ told me about the origin of their relationship.

In the day and age where a lot of R&B is full of ambient, atmospheric soundscapes with vocals drowned enough reverb to give the illusion that the artists are either 20,000 leagues under the sea or traveling at Millennium Falcon speed — and I like that brand of R&B — it’s refreshing to hear someone who sounds like an inhabit of Earth. In AMEA’s case that’s Oklahoma born, Ohio raised and Texas made which in itself could explain the title of the EP. But when you hear the lyrics and the amount of love she’s shouldering over the span of three songs; wishing and hoping on “Foolish”, turning dream worlds into reality on “High” and granting wishes on “Quiver”, you’ll see that the EP’s title easily serves as a double entendre. - Casa De Lowrey


"AMEA's Exciting Music Will Take You On A Relaxed 'VayCay'"

Introducing AMEA, a woman of many talents: singer-songwriter, rapper, producer and engineer. She was born in Oklahoma, raised in Ohio and is now based out of Texas. AMEA'S travels have inspired her music and kept her sense of wonder alive. 
 
Enjoy 'MTV Cribs Edition' and 'VayCay'. Two completely different pieces of music and slices of AMEA's life; 'MTV Cribs Edition' has a complex tapestry of layers and compacted beat incorporating rap and 'VayCay' has a super chilled R&B vibe and shows off AMEA's glorious vocals. Both tracks are very real with regards to subject matter and delivery.
 

AMEA's songs have very slick production and you pick out new things each time you hear them. Very different yet very addictive which prove a number of points; AMEA can sing, she can rap; she can produce really versatile, easy to listen to music. We definitely want to hear more from this girl and as soon as possible please.
 
Fortunately AMEA will be releasing new music this Spring so stay tuned. - Britz & Beatz


"NEW MUSIC MONDAY with Amea, and K Flay"

A new week calls for new music to get you through the week and as much as we love having Stormzy’s GSAP on rotation, we also love being introduced to new artists also doing their thing.

Meet AMEA, a 24 year old R&B and soul singer, who was born in Ohio. Having grown up around a musical family, some may say it was inevitable that she would go on to pursue a career in music.

With influences from the likes of Prince, Miguel and D’Angelo, her aim is to spread her individuality with her music, as well as a message of ‘unity is better than separation’. What’s not to love? - L'ART Magazine


"Sociologist AMEA refreshes R&B in San Antonio"

According to her heart break-inspired and softly spoken lyrics, AMEA is a “Resident of hypocrisy and adamant lust,” but on campus she is a sociology graduate student, panelist at 2017’s Music Biz Day and research assistant.

Oklahoma native Ayanna Moriah-Eliza Allen (a.k.a AMEA) has been stirring waves in the local and regional music scene for the past 11 months. Between performances in New York, a string of SXSW dates and her graduate studies, the 24-year-old artist is paying her dues in the music world and in the world of academia.

“I typically will do my school work as I work on my music; they go hand in hand to me, (or) I’ll get a song idea out quick before I need to get an assignment done on time,” Allen said. The boundaries of student and the stage moniker, AMEA, constantly blur due to traveling, studying, creating and performing. Constant movement seems to be the norm for Allen who was born in Oklahoma City, and later brought up in Ohio while spending part of her childhood in a travelling children’s choir.

Being raised on a diet of gospel in and out of church allowed a young Allen to absorb music consistently in a musician filled environment. Adolescence led to more variety as secular music became more prominent in high school for Allen. Her entire youth served as an incubation period leading up to 2015 when Allen released “In the Mind of AMEA Vol. 1,” a two-song project that showcases Allen’s extensive vocal range in a raw but full production.

After receiving overwhelming support from family and friends, Allen opened the floodgates and released several projects and collaborations this past year, including her latest single, “Sweet Talker” and the collaborative body of work, “Colo(u)r Series.”

The sound of AMEA lies at the intersection of cool and serious, relaxation and tension and calm but fun. A silky smooth voice reminiscent of Jorja Smith or Gabi Wilson (a.k.a H.E.R.) shines over Miguel-inspired production that ranges from Nujabes’ redolent hip-hop to Kehlani’s brand of pop mixed with R&B. This diversity is all due to Allen’s belief in DIY ethics and desires for her music.

“It’s important to be self-sufficient as an artist. Being an active student of your craft is what being a self-sufficient artist means to me,” Allen said, “I want my music to be very broad so it can touch as many people as possible.”

On top of her diverse production value, the nomenclature in AMEA songs is especially stimulating whether she is rapping over the beat or crooning over a somber chord. This is no surprise considering American poet, writer and activist Nikki Giovanni is a huge influence on her art and ethics. Allen gathers inspiration for her life from Giovanni. “For me personally, that’s how I see my career going: being a professor and also being a musician. It’s very doable, and I’ve seen people do it,” she said.

Allen’s constant nose to grindstone ethos is continual and fierce. The box fade donning troubadour has one project in production right now, but she is working on it until it is as crisp and beautiful as she imagines it to release. Tour is also on the horizon for Allen’s summer, including dates in New York City, Atlanta and Los Angeles. Allen’s graduation date is set for December 2017. It is and will be a busy year for this new voice in San Antonio’s music scene.
