HeeSun Lee isn’t your average Hip Hop emcee. Put up for adoption in her native Korea country at the age of four months, she was brought to America and raised by Chinese parents on Staten Island, NY. As a teenager, she became a fan of Hip Hop acts ranging from Lauryn Hill and Will Smith to Tupac Shakur.
All of Lee’s diverse experiences have fused to create the illuminating backdrop for her album "Stereotypes" that released on January 21, 2014. It placed #7 on iTunes Christian/Gospel Charts and #24 on Billboard Christian Gospel. Lee’s story is unique in that she credits not only her faith but also Hip Hop for saving her life.
“Hip Hop saved me from a lot of things,” she confesses.
