“I’m So Black” is the latest release from Emcee Monte’s “Change Gone Come” EP, a project which aims to engage the social consciousness of America. From the great black migration to the present day, the record looks to shed light on how the fight for Civil Rights connects directly to the Black Lives Matter Movement.
“My new record is about being black in America, being proud of my heritage, having pride in myself, celebrating my blackness, celebrating black art, and making the statement that black lives matter”, Emcee Monte said from his home in Chicago, IL.
The EP offers the listener intriguing, thought provoking anthems, and with an upbeat bounce and dark cinematic synths throughout – “Change Gone Come” creates the perfect vibe for delivering Monte’s celebratory message of black heritage to America and around the globe.
Emcee Monte continued, “I am a positive artist, my music is clean and uplifting. I do not promote violence, drugs, misogyny or any other negative images and stereotypes that have been associated with rap and the hip hop culture in the past. I feel it’s very important, now more than ever, that we use the forum and platform that we have as artists to bring positivity and progress to our community and to work toward a lasting change in perception and reality for the world as a whole.”
