Newark, New Jersey, United States
ThaGataNegrra is an American alternative hip-hop artist who specializes in innovative lyrics, cleverly twisted metaphors and a funky start-stop delivery that nails the listener from the word go; an eclectic style that runs the gamut from danceable ear candy to mind-searing aggression. Her distinct flow, catlike persona, and penchant for the odd not only earned GATA her feline namesake and the tag of PunkRhyma™ , but made her a force that is undeniable.

GATA is painted as a manga/anime character of the hip-hop spectrum; her performances lend to this by featuring cosplay and visual kei style. Her musical style was colorfully described as “the bastard child of Hello Kitty and Eminem”, “infectious”, “honest”, and “full-bottle, in-your-face chick-hop”. Her influences range from Golden Era hip-hop and punk to dance and new wave. She is a founder of The Alliance of Alternative and Eclectic Hip-Hop. She has been showcased at Code of tha Cuts: Project B-Girl at Vans Warped Tour, and the ING NYC Marathon, among other venues.
