Underground femcee Stacy Epps studied African American studies and sociology at the University of Virginia. That's where she and Scienz member Lil Sci formed the jazzy rap duo Sol Uprising. They released Sol Power in 2004.
This lady combines rhymes with singing. Fond of contrast, she mixes soft melodies with hard beats.
She collaborated with MF Doom( Eye 2004), Madlib, J Rawls, ... Epps and femcee Invincible were asked to join Bahamadia to tour Europe in 2006.
Her sensual singing on Jazzliberatorz' Clin d'Oeil (2008) track "U do" is a clear example of her laid back rhyming.
Check out her debut solo album The Awakening!(2008, Japanubia Music)
In her own words: "To shine from within is the most beautiful thing you can do. I create music to heal us through sound and vibration."
