Mamaletta (aka Mariletta Konstantara) is an MC-singer-songwriter from Athens, Greece. She spent a decade in the U.S. where she studied composition and arrangement, and worked as a performer playing her Hip-Hop, Reggae, Jazz, Soul and World music, live, and recording with bands from 2006 till 2015.
She now presents you with her Debut Album “A Better Place” with full production by Kill Emil, a DJ and producer also based in Athens, Greece -by way of Brazil- who since 2009, has created a very interesting and diverse discography of powerful beats and endless chill vibes.
The Album “A Better Place” is composed of 10 tracks, songs talking about Gratitude, Acknowledgement, Justice, Love, Hope, Solutions, and New Beginnings! Hip-Hop meets Reggae, Dub, Dancehall and Drum n’ Bass, so it’s both relaxing and explosive at the same time!
Highlights on this new release include the ‘trippy’ yet grounded “Problems”, the powerful “Dear Law”, the mantra of empowerment “Acknowledge the Power”, and of course, “A Better Place” itself carries a calm yet unbreakable force!
With Kill Emil’s magic music production, and Mamaletta’s unique voice we are all guaranteed to go to a place out far...and then back to ours, to keep trying as much as we can to make it A Better Place.

LYRICS :
Now why you givin' me that look Mr. Policeman?
Why does it have to be me again and again?
Why you givin' me bad vibes Mr. Authority?
Did you know that we are payin' all your sallery?
Tell me do I have a sign on my forehead
saying I wanna waste my time with you?
Dear Law you keep harassing me!
Dear Law always abusing me!
Dear Law why you keep treating me
Like I'm worth nothing nothing nothing?
When I'm worth something something something!
Yes I'm worth something something something!
Something good!
Something strong!
Something true!
I don't want any more of your stupid prejudice,
I don't deserve to be treated in disrespectful ways,
I'm not the one who opens my way into your personal stuff,
so from my personal stuff, just stay the fuck away!
I don't like strangers be touching me, it's uncivilized,
I do not know you and I probably don't wanna know you
So, go arrest some thieves and give the people what they need,
we need safety, and you should be providing it, woh oh
you should be loving it, yeah,
shouldn't be using it ,no,
and you should be giving it always from the heart, but
