Artist Maria Alexa boldly lays down an edgy new track and a message to those who would love to see her fail. Titled “I’m Good,” Alexa shoots down her haters with ease, unconcerned with their misplaced interest and the success she has built over the years. The song clearly indicates her desire to cut ties with toxic relationships.“You wanna see me doing bad, I'm good” she waves them off, “I'm doing things you really wish you could.” Alexa assures them she wants no part in their narrative and since leaving has never been better after “cut[ting] out all the distractions.” The empowering track gleams with confidence and fearlessness as Alexa pushes aside anything that tampers with her positive mindset or dares to threaten her accomplishments. Instead of looking back, the singer strides forward, unafraid and feeling afresh with a newfound self-assurance.
“I’m Good,” is centered around Alexa's steady vocals over an electronic beat and bass that pulses throughout the song. The track features light drums and synthesizers, with a prominent deep bass at the forefront. In the chorus, Alexa’s nonchalant voice is accented by a techno reverb that bounces off her voice as she dismisses her haters. The track is vocally and lyrically strong, paying close attention to the bold message as the beat is used as an enhancer to back up her biting lines. The electronic sounds are simple and constant throughout the song. The track plays like a rebutting rap line as Alexa wittily throws jabs at her haters in a straightforward move. Unconcerned by their unwanted attention, “I’m Good” is a form of emancipation from the toxic bonds she once was tied to and the freedom she now feels as she simply focuses on music.
Based in New York City, Maria Alexa is a talented singer-songwriter, poet, and producer. The first signs of Alexa's love for music began in childhood when she played 90s tunes on her toy piano for her dad and sang songs by famous artists like Britney Spears and Andrea Bocelli. While pursuing her dream of music in school, Alexa took part in vocal lessons, piano lessons, choir, and acapella groups, actively building her musical gifts. Soon, her poetry and journaling came to fruition when she debuted with her single “Sunshine” in 2020 after years of experimenting with music and refining her sound. In 2023, her performance of Elevation Worship’s “The Blessing” went viral on TikTok leading to 40k streams on Spotify. Over the past few years, Alexa has released multiple singles, accumulating millions of streams independently. She plans to release new music monthly along with a debut album in 2024.
