Hamilton rapper Emay hears the angel's trumpet calling

Will McGuirk May 10, 2016

Hammer MC, Emay has a new album, the self-produced Ilah. The Hamilton-based hiphop artist has released the first single, "Israfil angels trumpet". In traditional Islam, Israfil's trumpet announces the day of resurrection. The track itself has an intriguing backflow, a bubbling almost barking cacophony of horns on loop, over which Emay raps his suburban experience, video games and riding on transit dreaming of better days. Emay, one to watch.
