♫ ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: STACY EPPS

♫ Stacy Epps - Floatin’

Say hello to Stacy Epps. When I first heard her, of course the first influence that popped into my mind was Amel Larrieux, of whom I happen to be a big fan of. Stacy, who would never denounce hip hop as her first love, rattles of the names of KRS 1, MC Lyte and Queen Latifah as some of her main influences.

Her first single, “Floatin’” is a mellow, grooving track that has been getting a lot of love as of late. Her album is slated to drop in July, and will be what Stacy calls a “truly independent venture.”

Make sure you guys show Stacy some love and let her know what you think of her music!

Definitely feeling this right here!!! I’m a neo-soul head so this is what I’ve been missing… I do hear a little influence of Amel Larrieux in her vocals whom I am a fan of as well… I need to go peep her Myspace page to hear some more of her material..

Like the beat, not the voice so much. It’s grating.
And her flow reminds me of Amel Larrieux, but that’s pretty much it.
Now, I’m going to listen to some other tracks…

love it! LOVE IT LOVE IT!

its so sombre, soo chill. It reminds me of a nice summer evening, the sun dying down, humidity fills the air but a nice breeze comes along every now and again…chilling on the varandah or in a field..so chill…havent heard a track like this in a hot minute. Feels good man. So fresh. Definitely will be bumping this in my car this summer.

I don’t hear the Amel connection at all,but I’ve been lovin Stacy for a min now. If I’m not mistaken she’s actually the sister of Madlib and Oh No. She sings the hook on Oh’ No’s debut album, The Disrupt.

And Gabbi is the truth too! Don’t sleep on Boobie’s Groove.

damn i like this. i wanna hear the rest of the album now. Even the beat is sick

28.

the one is back

Friday, May 9, 2008 /

I like this chick. I do not get the Amel L- comparison other then the sound but not the voice. I love Amel, but I like Stacey so it will be nice to see what else comes out from her.

I like this. This is the type of song I would add to my “Chill Music” playlist. I hear a hint of Amel, but not much. She reminds me more of Goapele. Her style is dope nontheless. It’s refreshing. I’ll make a mental note to check out more of her music later.

I guess Im the only person who thought this was wack.
I think it needs more cleaning up and more production value.

I heard this song before on her MySpace page, it’s the shit! I think this was produced by Madlib, the producer who worked with J Dilla. She’s also a hip-hop artist too. You can hear more of her singing if you pick up MadVillain’s CD “Madvillainy.”

51.

yes

Saturday, May 10, 2008 /

her voice sounds familiar (a lil bit of mary j), that pic looks like fefe dobson

I hear a Goapele influence more than Amel’s. Has anybody listened to Amel’s Lovely Standards? She killed those jazz standards.

I think the track is groovy. By the way what’s your relationship to Omar Epps. Your brother. Well any way sister. I think you are on your way to becoming a big star. Perserverance pays off.

oh, she’s definitely hot, but no relation to Omar Epps, she’s half Asian i do believe. She’s super hot though, can’t wait for the album to drop
