Sacramento R&B singer-songwriter Nataya Rule performs her single “Loverboy” for Hangout Gigs, a video series that highlights Sacramento bands and artists.

Rule has known that she wanted to be a singer from an early age, a journey sparked in large part by Michael Jackson’s “You Rock My World.” Now, she has carved out her sound as an R&B artist, but isn’t afraid to delve into hip hop, soul and gospel.

Follow Rule on Instagram for new releases and upcoming shows. Listen to her music on Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp.
