Mama B flies across the sky on her new single and lyric video Unicorn — showcasing today on Tinnitist.
The world of family music is getting a fresh and fantastical update with the release of Imaginology, the debut album from Mama B (aka Jacq Becker), due May 10, just in time for Mother’s Day. The album blends modern production aesthetics with timeless songwriting to create a magical musical experience that resonates with both children and adults alike.
In the spotlight is the single Unicorn, which exemplifies Mama B’s ability to weave tales of fantasy and adventure into music. With the infectious energy of pop icons like Dua Lipa and Taylor Swift, Unicorn captures the imagination, telling the story of mythical creatures poised to embark on nocturnal adventures with young dreamers. This enchanting song, inspired by Mama B’s nieces, showcases her knack for crafting narratives that ignite the imagination.
Mama B’s journey in music, spanning nearly two decades, has been marked by her dynamic roles as a songwriter, pop artist, and music executive. Her rich career includes notable achievements such as having her music featured in film and TV productions like Pretty Little Liars, and collaborations with giants such as Grammy-winning producer RedOne. Mama B’s experience and insight into the music world shape the sonic landscape of Imaginology.
Raised in a musical household in Newport Beach, Mama B’s formative years were steeped in the sounds of old-school rock ’n’ roll, soul and Motown. Her mother’s band set the stage for a lifelong passion for music. This passion led her to explore various genres, from the vocal prowess of Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey to classical, jazz, and a cappella during her time at Yale.
Imaginology is a testament to Mama B’s evolution as an artist and her desire to create music that transcends generational boundaries. “I wanted to do something a little different than what I was hearing out in the music space for kids. I wanted to create music that parents would leave on in the car after they drop their kids off to school,” she explains.
The album builds upon the success of Zoology, Mama B’s collaboration with Uncle T, which earned 55 million streams and 14 million views. Awards and recognition, such as being a finalist in the 2021 John Lennon Songwriting Contest and winning a National Parent Product Awards in the Children’s Album category, underscore the impact of her work.
As Mama B embarks on this magical musical adventure, she invites families across the globe to join her in exploring the wonders of Imaginology. A journey into a world where imagination knows no bounds, the album showcases Mama B’s commitment to creating a vibrant, engaging world that celebrates the joy of family, creativity, and shared musical experiences.
