The Pulse of Entertainment: Pop Sensation Maria Raquel Releases Two Singles
While Prepping for EP Release
by Dr. Eunice
Moseley
(June 14, 2024) - "I love Hip-Hop," said Pop singer/songwriter Maria
Raquel when talking about her latest singles release, "Bull's Eye" and "I'm
Better." "Music was always there. In my senior year I made an effort to release music."
Maria is
a multi-talent young lady she sings, write songs, produces songs, dances, models, dances and plays the guitar. She also owns
cosmetic line. Both the "Bull's Eye" and "I'm Better" singles are accompanied by music videos.
"My
music is actually Pop / Electronic," Raquel pointed out to me.
Her previous single "Plot Twist" has garnered
over 40,000 views in the first hour of its release. The Atlanta native has achieved a world record with the most magazine
covers by a 17-year-old - 19 total.
The new single "I'm Better" is an empowering song of self-assurance and both
are on her upcoming EP.
"I like both," Maria said when I ask which is her favorite - singing or dancing. "I
want to leave a legacy behind. My music is timeless. Something people can listen to that's timeless."
"I'm working on a
new album," Maria added.
The upcoming EP will be part of the album. Maria Raquel,
born Maria Raquel Thomas, is slowly releasing her full-length project, first one single at a time, then with the singles and
more on an EP, and then those EP songs with others on her debut album.
Maria just graduated high
school and has been accepted into Arizona State University for aerospace. She said she wants to design and engineer airplanes
in an industry where there are few blacks. The talented Pop star has collected over 6,000 followers on TikTok and over 19,000
followers on Instagram. www.MariaRaquelThomas.com
