Traycee Lynn
Traycee Lynn, songstress, emcee and budding producer is the latest wave to burst through Philadelphias underground. This highly anticipated cd goes from soul to hip-hop with spurts of rock and spoken word in a fun, sexy, hypnotic way that makes the cd an instant classic on the rise.
Sounds like:
Vocally compared to Erykah Badu, Lynn steps it up with original thought provoking and stirring lyrics of an old soul reminiscent of Marvin Gaye and Lauryn Hill, yet skillfully modernized with the hip-hop storytelling finesse of Nas.
