Career
She began singing at a very young age. Born and raised in Tanzania, Maua Sama started singing in childhood, with her parents stressing the importance of education over music. Her parents were originally opposed to it, preferring that she concentrate on her academics. Despite parental pressure and a wish to drop out of school to focus solely on her music, she finally graduated.
After she graduated from high school, a couple of her songs made their way to Mwana FA, who helped introduce her to industry contacts.
In 2013, Mwana FA found Maua Sama. At the time, he listened to some of her songs and was immediately taken by her voice. Later that year, the two collaborated on a song called "So Crazy."
She soon traveled to Dar es Salaam and recorded tracks including "So Crazy "(featuring Mwana FA) and "Mahaba Niue, "both of which were released in 2015.
However, in January 2015, she released her first official song, "Let Me Know." With her big hit track "Iokote" starring Hanstone in 2018, she controlled the music airways, attracted music admirers outside of Tanzania, and earned her place in the music scene.
The song garnered over ten million streams across platforms by the time a remix featuring rapper Rostam appeared in 2020. That year, she also released singles including "Nioneshe "and "Binua, "the latter featuring Jaivah.
With powerful but sensuous vocals, she boasts of popular songs such as "Katu Katu'', ‘'Amen'', ‘'Bounce", and "Nakuelewa" (2018), and has been featured by prominent singers such as Ben Pol and Marianne Mdee.
