British-Jamaican Artist America Foster Joins Major Lazer as Youngest, First Female Member

In a major move for the electronic music scene, 28-year-old British-Jamaican artist America Foster has officially joined the group Major Lazer as their youngest and first female member. Foster, who hails from the outskirts of London, has been making waves with her unique blend of authentic Jamaican dancehall style and a quirky, charismatic persona.

Foster's journey to this point has been an impressive one. As one of seven children in a household dominated by boys, she learned early on to use her talent for entertaining to ensure her voice was heard. Her freestyling and voice acting skills, honed from a young age, eventually caught the attention of Diplo, the Grammy-winning DJ and co-founder of Major Lazer. After exchanging music and meeting in person, Foster was invited to collaborate with the group, leading to her official debut with them in June 2025.

Now as the newest member of Major Lazer, Foster is poised to take the music industry by storm. Her unique sound, which draws inspiration from the likes of Beenie Man, Elephant Man, and Vybz Kartel, has already garnered her a dedicated following. With the support of the Major Lazer team, Foster is set to continue her meteoric rise, captivating audiences with her infectious energy and undeniable talent.
