Singer-songwriter Queen Makedah journeys from America to Israel to bring her energizing and danceable R&B, neo-soul, hip-Hop infused reggae and afrobeat music w/conscious and inspiring lyrics relative to the times.
Her incredible 3rd album Peace Process includes blazing collaborations with Grammy nominated producers Zion I Kings (Akae Beka/Midnite, Sizzla, Lutan Fyah, Jah 9, Blakkamoore, Chronixx, Protoje and more) and Christopher Meredith (Ziggie Marley, Stephen Marley, Amy Winehouse, Lauryn Hill, Burning Spear and more).
Lyrical inspiration for the album evolved from Makedah’s experience as an elementary school teacher in the poverty and gang violence plagued ghettos of Oakland and Richmond, California.
Backed by the amazing Sheba Warriors band, Queen Makedah is now booking nationally and internationally!!!

Aviyah Shurp | lead guitar
