Masha The Rich Man is the project of Berlin-based Jewish
Ukrainian artist Maria »Mascha« Raykhman. The sound,
shaped by Mascha’s Eastern European socialisation, embraces
Yiddish influences and sometimes flirts with the traditional,
sometimes with the mainstream. Through her melancholic
folk-pop, the artist creates a timeless parallel world that
welcomes listeners into a state of loneliness. Mascha’s lyrics
are about world-weariness, dreams, formative memories and at
the same time mark the beginning of her self-healing.
Thematic references to mental health, gender diversity and
female empowerment span the arc from intimate narratives to
current social discourse.
