For Hip Hop lovers ! Good hip hop is back....If you have been waiting for a powerful, balanced female voice in hip hop, she's right here :)
There are another female Mc´ s in the game, but they don´t have good voice, meaningful lyrics and ill beats :) And she has all this in storage...She is an amazingly talented Mc. She was member of the supergroup Polyrhythm Addicts (now it´s Apani B), comes with her solo debut “Half Woman Half Amazin” .
With production from DJ Scratch, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Da Beatminerz, DJ Spinna, Apathy & more and guest appearances from Phonte (Little Brother), Chip Fu & others, Tiye is ready to take over the game as the dominant female artist in hip-hop.
She´s female producer, MC, singer and songwriter in hip-hop.
As a beat-maker/producer, Tiye won the 2006 MTP (Meet The Producers) All-Female Beat Battle Invitational.
Classically trained in Piano since she was seven years-old, Tiye Phoenix has always been musically, creatively and artistically inclined. In the late 90’s, Tiye was a part of S.O.U.L. Food Symphony, a DC based group that performed with artists like, Nas, Gill Scot Heron & more. During the "Golden Years" of hip-hop, Tiye was a member of the Rawkus family, collaborating with Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Hi-Tek & many more. Tiye also worked with fellow Rawkus artists DJ Spinna, Shabaam Sahdeeq and Mr. Complex as part of the super group The Polyrhythm Addicts.

So check this album, It´s very good release without questions. My favourite are "Master Plan" produced by Dj Jazzy Jeff who´s one of my favourites producers and Dj´s and " Revolving Door" which takes me to 90´s. This is not oldschool - this is the future :)
