Have you wondered what happened to real artists? Well, Marquita is a profound artist in every sense. This singer/rapper/songwriter/producer truly does it all. Her voice is a refreshing sound, as clear as a bird, but don’t let the sweet voice fool you. When she steps to the Mic, she definitely proves her worthiness of the title MC. Marquita will capture you with her hypnotic, butterscotch vocals and then move you with her soul grabbing lyrics and intense delivery. With the vision of being a major contributor to the R&B and Hip Hop genre, she has all the tools to do it and will do it well.

Born in Miami, Florida, Marquita has taken her life’s journey and put it into song. Her passion for music began at a very young age.

Major music influences include Whitney Houston, Betty Wright, Minnie Ripperton, Sybil as well as Jay- Z, MC Lyte, Slick Rick and Lauren Hill.
