Empress Of
Empress Of (aka Lorely Rodriguez)‘s music is empowering in every sense of the word; sure, it’s easy to get swept away by the chilling vocals or mercurial house beats that trace throughout the crystalline surface of her debut album Me, but less obvious are the righteous messages and deeply personal stories she shares with each song. Whether chronicling the bitter cycle of privilege and inequality (“Standard”), clapping back at street harassers (“Kitty Kat”), or praising the powers of self-love (“Need Myself”), Empress Of tackles heartbreak and passion through a refreshingly feminist lens. Girl power never sounded so good. (www.empressof.com)

I am really impressed by her works. Talents like these are the ones that should be brought to the mainstream. There are some people in the mainstream that has not got anything good compared to her and that makes me so sad.
