Nominated for “Best Pop Artist, Best Solo Artist, Best Singer/Songwriter” at the 2012 “Artist In Music Awards”, held Feb 10th at the world-famous “Key Club” in Los Angeles, new artist, “Meru Matu” is looking to change the face of mainstream commercial pop music. With the release of her self-written and recorded "SuperShip" album, comes the first single of "Turn My Pages"; a breath of fresh air to a somewhat repetitive industry. "Turn My Pages" is a preview of what’s to come from this promising rouge artist who’s all encompassing variety of styles come with a pop signature on "AlienHaus Records".
"Meru Matu" brings a promising sound to listeners that is unique and outside the box. “It’s time for the groundwork of change that has been laid by avant-garde artists such as "Lady Gaga, Nicki Manjai, Travie McCoy" and others to be solidified by artists who are also not afraid to create something new”, says Matu. She was also recently quoted using the word “adrenalized” to describe how she feels about the release of "Turn My Pages", that is expected to take her straight to the number one spot on Billboard’s Top 100.
What separates "Meru Matu" from the rest of the commercial pop artists of today? Well, aside from not having a major label contract with multi millions of dollars behind her release, is that fact that she wrote and recorded her entire 12 track album that boast GRAMMY winners, "Chris Trevett" (Erykah Badu-Baduizm album) on the mix and Reuben Cohen (Billionair by Travie McCoy/Bruno Mars) on the master. Talk about changing the game, Matu is comfortable in the fact that good music has a ticket price that no label can afford and or control. In a recent interview, she painted a picture that freedom music is priceless as it is born of a place of uncertainty in terms of album sales, but it is deeply rooted in true creative bliss.
"Turn My Pages" is available at all online retailers world-wide.

"Meru Matu is an Indie music champion. She is not succumbing to the commercial machine known as the music business, while proudly handling the more serious business of creating her art. Her latest release "Supership" is a pure diamond amongst the current Pop music pantheon. What makes it stand out? For one, this artist writes. Listen to the words of the first single "Turn My Pages" and you will find the heart of a sincere poet reaching out to you through your speakers. She also isn't just following current Pop trends. The song "We've Got It" could easily have been on Beck's "Midnite Vultures" album. If you like what you hear, support the Indie artist Meru Matu. You won't be sorry."
