Known for her versatility, Makayla dabbles into different music genres while retaining a strong pop feel.

Makayla’s biggest musical influence is the king of pop himself, Michael Jackson. It is no surprise that she aspires to be as big as the late pop star someday, and the quality of her work tells us this is not impossible.

The nine-year-old star said she enjoys making music for everyone. Her music has been regarded as a source of inspiration by persons of different age groups, with many touting her as a golden future for Nigerian Music.

The multi-gifted Makayla is also currently co-authoring a book with renowned children’s author and a collaborator on one of her tracks, Sope Martins. The book, African Princess, titled after the song collaboration, is set to be released later this year.
