Los Angeles, CA (Top40 Charts/ MANIKA Official Website) Eighteen-year-old pop artist MANIKA is proud to announce that her much anticipated single "GOOD GIRLS," produced and arranged by SoulShock (hitmaker for Whitney Houston, 2Pac, Usher, Backstreet Boys, Pitbull/Chris Brown, JoJo, Brandy,
Nicole Scherzinger, X-Factor etc.), will be added to Top 40 Radio, starting June 5th. This fun, energetic pop track is destined to be an anthem for all the "good girls" out there and meant to be turned up loud!
The June release follows her breakout Top 40 pop hit "Just Can't Let You Go" featuring Young Money's Lil Twist. "Good Girls" is the lead single from her debut, five-track EP entitled "THE MIDDLE OF HOLLYWOOD EP," slated for release May 22nd which will also include "Just Can't Let You Go."
MANIKA, a fresh and positive role model for teens, is also jet setting across the nation with special performances. She has been chosen by teen sensation, One Direction, the first British group to ever have their first record debut at #1, to be the opening act on their North American Summer Tour. In between performances with One Direction, MANIKA, a former Girl Scout herself, will also sprinkle in a few headlining dates for The Girl Scouts of America 100th Anniversary Tour, at which she will perform in front of thousands of girls who are inspired by the star's upbeat radiance. MANIKA performed last Saturday on May 12 on the Village Stage at KIIS-FM's Wango Tango alongside Nicki Minaj, Pitbull and Maroon 5.
MANIKA was discovered by the late Frank DiLeo, Michael Jackson's long-time manager, and revered-music coach CeCe Sammy of UK's Pop Idol, who now manages her. Her EP is released on Wamaframa Records/CCA Entertainment and distributed by BDG / RED - A division of SONY Music Entertainment.
