We are switching it up a bit this week and serving you some incredible R&B for our second Fresh Artist Friday of the month. Louisiana singer Mariah is here to charm you with her incredible vocals in her latest song, "MATERIAL GIRL". "MATERIAL GIRL is written from the viewpoint of a woman at a crossroads. Should she remain in a relationship that caters to the material and superficial while neglecting what is truly important? In the process of finding herself again, she outlines what is missing: Loyalty. Time. Love. Patience. Teamwork. The things that money cannot buy," mentions Mariah. "I refused to let my voice be muffled by gifts or material things. Flowers, bags, and clothes can’t fill cracks and holes created by words and actions. Once I realized this, I found my strength. I found myself again," she adds.
"MATERIAL GIRL" is currently the #27 R&B song in the country according to this week's Mediabase report. The song was written by Mariah D. Hester and produced by Edwin Tony Nicholas. The music video for "Material Girl" was directed by Devon V.
