Emmeline

Emmeline’s (She/her) unique blend of spoken word and alternative hip-hop has marked her as one of East London’s rising poetic souls. Making music that traverses both speech, song, and that mystical in-between, she has made a name for herself on the UK’s performance poetry circuit as well as at underground cyphers and beat showcases. After meeting super producer Fraser T Smith (producing for the likes of Dave, Adele, Stormzy) in late 2021, the pair began to collaborate on releasing music, resulting in two EPs with tracks that featured Kojey Radical, and were then performed on tour, when Emmeline opened for The Streets in 2022.

Named one of The Guardian’s ‘Ones to Watch’ and The Line of Best Fit’s ‘On the Rise’, Emmeline has since signed with indie hip-hop label Lewis Recordings to release her own mixtape, the product of a year spent experimenting musically with emerging producers across London. In 2025, she headed to Texas to play SXSW, as well as developed a community showcase.
