Super group EMC has been doing radio runs to promote their new six song EP Turning Point that was released last week on May 20th. Master Ace, WordsWorth, PunchLine and Strickland have been to every relevant underground Rap show online, on satellite and terrestrial radio.
All four are known for their lyrical dexterity and all of them have had large followings for years. Master Ace, of course, got his name known as a member of the legendary Juice Crew under famed New York radio DJ Marly Marl. The Juice Crew got recognized on New Yorks' WBLS on Mr. Magics' Rap Attack as far back as the 1980's. The Juice Crew was even named after Mr. Magic who was also known as Sir Juice at the time.
PunchLine and WordsWorth got their start in a two man crew known simply as Punch And Words. They went on to do The Lyricist Lounge Show on MTV- with WordsWorth playing a major part in the entire production of the program. The Show featured special guest appearances by everyone from Slick Rick to Erykah Badu. Punch and Words along with Master Ace met Milwaukee MC Strickland on tour years ago and decided to do the super group "thing".
This video is footage of EMC on Statik Selektahs' Showoff Radio. The highlight of the freestyle session is the impromptu-off the dome verse from WordsWorth.
