Биография

Born in Providence, Rhode Island, Mapei moved with her mother to Sweden at the age of 10 and began a new life in a new, and unfamiliar country. Learning how to cope in different situations from an early age had a considerable impact on Mapei, who often struggled with finding her identity. It wasn’t until recently that she finally accepted herself as an artist and as a creative. 
 “We’re currently living in very political times, which is often exacerbated by the digital age we live in,”says Mapei. “However, I also see the positive changes that are happening. Thanks to social media, people are coming together like never before. Mapei is no stranger to criticism, both from herself and from others. “I’ve learned not to argue with my truths,” she says. “I’m a person of many contrasts, which is part of the reason why I make music. I’ve always wanted a soundtrack to my world. “I’m a product of my time and I can only reflect on what I’ve learned along the way. What I’ve accumulated in my soul,” Mapei solemnly says. She continues, “However, there are still so many damaging social structures that still exist. We still have a long way to go. There will always be a deeper sadness inside of me.” She knows others feel the same.“It’s a bit bittersweet this life that I’ve lived, but it’s also a well deserved life,” Mapei says . "Slowly but surely I’m giving more of myself away in my music. In a way, my life has become a work of art.”
