Living Soul: Q&A with Hip Hop Artist NeMISS ChiYork

If someone were to write a book about the greatest musical cities on the planet Chicago and New York would definitely need to have their own chapters. It’s from that great artistic tradition that singer/emcee NeMISS ChiYork’s “Soul Electro Hip Hop” sound emerges.

NeMISS has been working to carve her own lane in the music industry for several years. She has opened concerts for well established acts like Common, The Roots, and Dres of Black Sheep, and her Bottom Line EP was featured on AllHipHop.com, OkayPlayer.com, and Centric TV.

The soul vocalist recently released her new single “Anything Is Possible”. The jazz-fused, uplifting tune is just the latest offering from the Chi-town native and current Brooklyn resident. DZI: The Voice connected with NeMISS ChiYork to discuss her recent work, possibly signing with a label, and the musical heritage of the two towns that inspire her.
