Mariah The Scientist Performs Burning Blue On Jimmy Kimmel

Mariah the Scientist recently delivered a soulful performance of her song “Burning Blue” on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. Born Mariah Amani Buckles, the Atlanta-based singer and songwriter is known for fusing analytical depth with emotional storytelling. Her stage name pays homage to her passion for science, while her music delves into themes of love, heartbreak, and personal evolution. Drawing inspiration from hip hop, R&B, soul, and jazz, Mariah began writing songs while studying biology at St. John’s University. She ultimately chose to leave school and fully pursue her music career.

For her performance, Mariah the Scientist kept it ultra-chic in a reworked, pilot-inspired white blazer adorned with statement badges, paired with striking thigh-high white mesh boots. The look was bold, fashion-forward, and perfectly aligned with her signature style, no doubt the work of a skilled stylist who knows how to elevate her presence both on and off the stage.
