With so many rap artists losing their lives to senseless violence, it feels appropriate to share this track from the last album which addresses the issue. It is sad to see that there have been so many to add to the list in the decade since this song was released. Sleep in peace to those no longer with us. Hip hop was built on unity. You would battle with one of the 5 elements of Hip Hop. The two I love were emceeing and break dancing, presently called rapping and hip hop freestyle battle dancing. If you lost you went back to the drawing board, worked on your craft and came back stronger next time. In some spaces this is still the way, and we need more of that I place of the situations where senseless violence is rampant.

Slavementality (ft. Moment from Fear The Masses & J-Money )

EMJAY's aggressive style of delivery when flowing about subjects like racism, religion, justice, and anti-violence is what sets him apart from most conscious rappers.

As early as 1997, it was evident that EMJAY was not your typical rap artist. The rap duo Deluzion, which consisted of EMJAY and his late rap partner Malish, wrote music with messages opposing racism, gang life, and substance abuse. His first album, "Warlike Tactics" released in 1999 under the name Chaoz, was mostly gritty rhymes with a few positive messages. In 2002 the artist reinvented himself a...s EMJAY, and on his sophomore album, "Soul Cries," dedicated his rhymes to addressing problems in the world and presenting constructive & conscious messages. 

After Soul Cries, EMJAY & Malish reemerged briefly as Deluzion, returning primarily to their hard roots, and collaborating on several tracks to work on an EP. But life took over, as EMJAY graduated from college and concentrated on his full-time careers, and Malish concentrated on his full-time solo rap career. Years later tragedy struck, as Malish passed away in December 2010, prompting EMJAY to release the extremely rare "The Long Awaited EP" in 2011, a collection of the collaborations recorded over the timespan after they reunited. 
After a ten year hiatus, EMJAY released his 3rd and final album, "Anxiety Attax," in 2012. He was the leader of the HardConscious Movement, which was dedicated to raising money for charities and using music primarily as a means to express positive messages, but usually with a deep gritty sound. In 2013, The HardConscious concert organized by EMJAY raised over $600 in donations to St. Jude Children's Hospital.

After an 8 year hiatus, EMJAY will return to stage for Tour For Life 23, because the non-profit fundraiser is dedicated to a cause he is passionate about, mental health awareness and suicide prevention. December 3rd 2022 at 10selden in Woodbridge, CT. All proceeds go to the non-profit TFL23.
