Stacy has worked with some of the most talented & creative Hip Hop producers of this time including: Diamond D, Madlib, MF Doom, J-Dilla, Jneiro Jarel, Apex, Everett James, Karriem Riggins, S1 & Nick Speed.

She calls her sound:

spacedirthopfunksouljazz. Yeah, try to put that in a box.

Her energy, intellectualism and sonic force cannot be controlled. She is a sound gypsy by nature. Raised as an “Army brat” from Black & Japanese parents, Stacy moved every two years. Her only constant was music. Inspired by Billie Holliday, MC Lyte, Sade, Mary J. Blige, Lauryn Hill and many others. She knew her future was meant for something.

In addition, Stacy Epps completed law school and focuses on music law. As a contribution to her culture she plans to assist & educate artists on the business & legal aspects of their careers.

Stacy’s last project was her debut EP "Ruff Drafts" which she put together in anticipation of the Sistaz in Rhyme Tour with Bahamadia and Invincible. Released in December of 2006, this was a truly independent project down to the artwork. She sold over 2,000 of these CDs worldwide.

Currently in the mixing stages is her long-awaited debut solo album "The Awakening" which will be released in Spring 2008. "Floatin," the "crazy" lead single from the upcoming album produced by Apex has been receiving rave reviews and many plays on various radio shows world-wide.
