What happens when you swap official government speeches for raw, independent hip-hop?
In this episode of Radio Safa, host Safa Amiri sits down with DMV-based hip-hop artist MC Lacemaker. Before carving out her space in the local music scene, MC Lacemaker spent years as a Federal speechwriter. Now, she brings that same mastery of wordplay, rhetoric, and storycrafting directly to the mic as an independent rapper who writes all her own lyrics.
Join us for a deep dive into:
- The Shift: Transitioning from formal speechwriting to writing original hip-hop lyrics.
- The Craft: How structure, rhythm, and message drive her songwriting process.
- Behind the Music: Personal stories from her journey in the local music community.
- Live Performance: Stick around for an exclusive, raw live session performed right in the studio!
