"Making a statement that ‘rock ‘n’ roll is black’ was not a way to kick anyone else out of the genre," she clarifies, "It was a way to address that as Black people we belong here, too. This song is not a racial divide or an attempt to segregate - this song is just giving credit to the culture that created the genre and empowering the people of said culture who sometimes feel left out and alienated in a space that overwhelmingly doesn’t look like them." They love its message and totally want to rock out to it. There are tons of white/non-Black people who fully support the song. I love your vocal styleĪcknowledging the positive comments, Maya offers, "We have a lot of support and tons and tons of people who have been supportive no matter what race they are. are giving rage against the machine but better.believe all she's trying to say is she's tired of the stigma that people of color can't be metalheads or seeing metal or Rock!!! tired of the stigma.a metal fan, I'd kill to see more BIPOC women fronting!.because there have been popular black artists like killswitch and sevendust in rock/metal doesnt prove the genre is inclusive to POC.😡.Thank you for your bravery and passion! ❤️ Maya Unfortunately racism does exist within the metal community, we need more POC to take the stage.taking it back lol no one said y’all couldn’t make rock y’all just decided not to lmaooįortunately, some people came to Maya's defense, as seen below:.to mention for MY personal opinion, the whole thing is set up like “look at me taking my culture back” when it was never “took”.does that mean the Spanish who invented the guitar in Spain can take it back too? Just wondering”.Lmao ever heard of Jimi Hendrix? Stop playing a victim.metal heads don't care what color you are. Dudes are weirdly against female vocalists you’re way more likely to be discriminated against for being female than not being white.
The music video had over half a million views in one day. "When I posted a clip from my music video 'Rock 'N' Roll Is Black' it went crazy on TikTok. A lot of the comments were saying, 'I’ve never heard or seen racism in the metal community ever.'"Īt press time, the TikTok clip featuring a portion of the "Rock 'N' Roll Is Black" music video (seen below) has racked up nearly 900,000 views and has drawn a wide range of criticism and support. Maya continues, "Then in the TikTok video I said, 'Despite facing some racism and hate, I still make the music I love.' This angered thousands of people – most of the comments are filled with people claiming how metal and rock has absolutely no racism within it and how there’s no way I’d ever change discrimination or racism trying to be a Black woman in metal and rock music.
"The first thing I posted prior to the music video clip was a TikTok video that said, 'I was afraid to join rock and metal because I didn’t think I’d be accepted,'" she tells us. In a remarkable display of gross ignorance and hate, comments flooded in doubting the significance of Black peoples' contributions to the genre, proving that a great deal of the rock and metal community is not at all as open-minded, accepting or knowledgeable as it often claims to be.Įven so, a few comments were supportive and uplifting and Maya offers up her thoughts on it all exclusively with Loudwire.
