EMMA LEE M.C. & Roccwell "Hatshepsut"

"Hatshepsut" helps set off the electrified beginning of the "Chocolate Bars" debut album by EMMA LEE M.C. and Roccwell with an unexpected edge, haunting synths, and cinematic take on the boom bap drumline. Pairing unbeatable storytelling bars with world class cuts by DJ LP2 of France, the song covertly and creatively illustrates the tale of the first documented woman to successfully rule as pharaoh in ancient Egypt. EMMA LEE M.C. channeling the story in first-person voice is a near perfect metaphor against Roccwell's dark and broody soundscape, complete with a hook worthy of the gym or the stadium. Like a motivational painting on wax, "Hatshepsut" unapologetically warns doubters to watch the throne, affirming from start to finish that "this is history, baby!"

Emma Lee M.C. & Roccwell "The Gifts"


"The Gifts" wraps up the latter half of the "Chocolate Bars" debut album by Harlem/NYC raised, Ugandan born, award winning Hip Hop creative Emma Lee M.C. and decorated German producer Roccwell

with a fresh burst of potent strings, a humming bass line you can feel and meditative lyrics we can all be thankful for. 

Like a storm of good fortune in the beat and lightning striking in the verses, the track relentlessly stirs an atmosphere of reasons to simply be grateful for life, light and the art of Hip Hop. Complete with a few break-neck flow switches and another stadium worthy hook, "The Gifts" is a thank you to all the listeners as well as the perfect track for celebrating, reflecting, and affirming the present is bright all year round.
