Maya Yenn drops debut single she says ‘is an ode to Millennial anxiety’
An employee at RPC side hustles as an alt-pop artist and music producer on TikTok.
When Maya Whatton is not managing the law firm’s various social media channels as a digital marketing specialist in the London office, she goes by Maya Yenn, and is known for her inventive beats on TikTok using samples from everyday sounds and household objects.
Maya dropped her debut single, tiptoe, a few months ago, which is a self-produced anthem “to a brand of anxiety unique to Millennials and Gen Z”.
The song was crafted from everyday soundbites she compiled last year for Halloween. Maya had recorded a TikTok vid (below) featuring “spooky” sounds such as a death knell, a creaking door, a dropped pumpkin and a ticking clock, around her parents’ house in Staffordshire where she has been living during lockdown.
