Aria’s album “Fulltime Love” mainly has songs about relationships and the love and struggles you have with your partner. Fulltime Love speaks of lyrics like, 24 hours not a minute less of your Fulltime Love, talking about women wanting the most out of their partners/ lovers and the fulltime commitment it takes to have and keep a good woman. The songs offers clean lyrics with a popular dub edge leaving new fans singing the hook of her song by the second verse.
She really empowers her female audience with her track titled “Trust Me” with lyrics like “Trust Me Don’t Watch Me” and the meaning behind having trust in your partner enough to know they are together with you as one and are not looking to cheat on you! She also has a song for the woman called “Stereotype” where she talks about not stereotyping men as being all bad” Don’t stereorype your man as there are still good men out there! The men truly appreciate this track!
The first single along with video released from the “ Fulltime Love” album was “Goose Pimples” on June 21, 2012 and the track is gaining steam in the NorthEast picking up rotation with many of the popular internet stations and some mainstream radio along with DJ record Many admit that once they see her live performance and the passion that comes thru on stage she is undeniably one of the hottest female reggae singers in her time. There is no doubt in my mind “Aria” is on the rising side of stardom admits, DeFronzo. Captivating the audience, Aria brings you back to roots reggae with a popular rockers dub as she performed her rendition of Bob Marley’s “Redemption Song” paying tribute to the King of Reggae, the one she considers her all time musical inspiration.

Realm Music Group LLC based out of Hollywood,FL, admits to using social media (youtube.com) and (facebook.com) to discover Aria. In a company meeting, we had been discussing how some of today’s most incredible talent had been found on social media sites ie., youtube and facebook by the likes of which Usher had discovered Justin Bieber and Jackie Ivanko was also discovered using online media, admits “DeFronzo”. We decided let’s take to the social media sites and see what was out there. We really wanted to have a reggae artist on our label and had been seeking talent for nearly two years when we finally came across Aria from Jamaica. We followed Aria and persued for about 6 months before initiating a record deal. “The album wasn’t even finished but we knew we wanted her on our label” says DeFronzo. When you come across someone as passionate and talented as Aria you cant sit back and wait so we were on it….we didn’t want to be left saying we wished we found and signed that artist Aria from YouTube like we said about Justin Bieber and Jackie Ivanko. “We wanted her and we got her!” say executives at Realm Music Group.
