The songwriter and producer of pop, hip hop and R&B known as Mae Scott has proudly published many impressive independent releases without the involvement of the corporate music industry on the Mae Scott record label.

Mae Scott is from a small town in Pennsylvania called Pittsburgh, PA and as a student in middle school she competed in the infamous talent show and pep rallies every year. Where she grew up middle school students would practice all year for one talent show and one pep rally. They would wear matching outfits and perform elaborate outrageous dance performances or rap or sing. She was also captain of the local drill team “Human Nature”. Every year they would march in the local Parades and Downtown Pittsburgh Parades.

Mae was part of a very talented community of artists. The artists from every school would drop music and try to compete with one-another. This is where she initially learned about the music industry. The local Record shop was also run by her neighbor whom were good friends with her family. It was through the shop that she got to meet many celebrities and artists long before anybody else knew about them. Mae would call them and ask if anyone was hanging around and would put on her favorite track suit and run down to the shop. This is where her curiosity with the music industry began. In the past, she cited influences such as Kanye West, Wiz Khalifa, Kendrick Lamar, Aaliyah, and R Kelly. Asking her today brings a different response, however.

“Honestly, I grew up in that MTV era where music videos were everything,” she writes, “but I also grew up on indie music videos, as well, by lesser known channels. Anything that was hot probably influenced me at some point while I was discovering myself. I’m focused now.”

That focus comes from living in a larger world than many people live in. A veteran of the US Army, Mae Scott served a tour in the war in Iraq before attending college and later Law School where she started her first indie label, Academy Rhyme Time, by turning the Hip hop club into a full fledged music label. She performed as a cheerleader for the Atlanta Falcons while she continued honing her music career. To date, she has already been nominated for a Grammy Award twice.

“My message tells people to find what their culture is,” says Mae Scott, “or what they want it to be personally, then go create that.”

This artistic integrity runs throughout her style. She has written songs and produced for other artists as early as 2006 where she started song arranging and producing for independent gospel rap groups. She has been recording and producing music ever since. Mae Scott has organically grown a following that continues to inspire her music today. She credits her fans as the reason why she gets better.

She has also collaborated and been apart of many local projects and is currently working on her first major Hip Hop album, Independently. Mae Scott is a multi-genre multi-talented Music Artist, Songwriter, &Producer.

Mae has taken the time to learn various art forms to add to her resume. Her many different styles of writing led to the creation of her infamously known pen name Mae Majesty.

The Black Site began about 30 seconds after Bam Bam and C.M., old acquaintances from very different parts of the globe (Bam Bam a California transplant and C.M. a Yorkshire native), ran into each other at a Thurston Moore gig that was on that night exploding from a roadhouse in East London. 

C.M. was glad to see Bam Bam, at the time mostly because it was the end of the month and he thought he might be able to have lend of a couple of quid for another pint, only to discover she was very much hoping for the same thing. So, instead, the two of them walked soberly down the street together basking in the ear-ringing afterglow of the almighty distortion king. C.M. told Bam Bam he liked her white leather shoes, she read him a couple of lines from a Ted Hughes poem she’d found, and together they re-discovered the thread of their old bond over hammed-up Scott Walker impersonations and story-telling competitions in the subject of childhood mischief. A couple of footsteps further and they decided they should write some songs together. 

H came over from his native Switzerland to record the band’s first demos, bringing with him a suitcase half full of fancy Russian mics and drum gadgetry and half with limited edition whisky and fine Winstons. Bam Bam and CM quickly decided he was a genius and cancelled his return flight. 

The rest is unwritten. But whatever happens next, it’s bound to involve a lot of language, vast amounts of noise, and at least one overly exaggerated line from ‘Montague Terrace.’
