February 20, 2015, New York, NY–Hip Hop super group eMC is set to release their second full length album ‘The Tonite Show’ May 5, 2015 on M3/Penalty Entertainment/Sony Red.
Formed in 2007, eMC is comprised of three spectacular lyricists: the legendary Brooklyn-bred, former Juice Crew member Masta Ace, the Milwaukee born phenom Stricklin and the widely respected and “Lyricist Lounge” emcee Wordsworth. They reunited in spring of 2014 signing to Penalty Entertainment and releasing their EP “The Turning Point”.
Penalty Entertainment President and CEO, Neil Levine is excited about ‘The Tonite Show’ stating, “We’re happy to CONTINUE
our relationship with eMC who are three of the most talented MCs in the game. The Tonite Show shows both their versatility and lyrical skills guaranteed to satisfy their fans as well as expanding their base”.
The album theme follows a day in the life of the group as they prepare for a last minute performance on ‘The Tonite Show’. The first single and video released will be “Fly Thoughts” featuring Pearl Gates and produced by Kic Beats which encompasses the true hip hop that eMC is known for and sets the stage for the group’s journey to perform.
Actress Rosie Perez and comedians Russell Peters and Tony Rock lend their voices in various skits throughout the LP while songs with guest features from singer Dion on the astrology driven love ode ‘Signtology’ and legendary rappers B-Real on ‘Stoopid’, Xzibit on ‘Numbers’ and Sadat X on ‘Moopies’, a song about male groupies round out the album giving eMC fans a solid musical experience they have come to expect from this exceptional group.
Masta Ace shares, “We realize it’s been a long wait for the fans since the ep came out but I think the extra time in the studio really paid off. With the help of some very talented people in Hollywood and in the music industry we have really outdone ourselves. I can’t wait to see the fans react to this record. It’s an experience that goes beyond the great verses and hooks. I’m proud to be a part of this and to be in a group with two talented, responsible and grounded brothers like Stricklin and Wordsworth!”
eMC has also planned a fun and interactive social media campaign leading up to the release of ‘The Tonite Show’ with contests and surprises starting with the attached video where they announce the album and guest features.
