Constance

Chicago-based poetess and musical storyteller, Constance offers up exhilarating
tracks that light up her personal experiences through clever, liquid lyrics that flow
over contagious R&B melodies and bass-infused beats. She puts her own
brutally-honest twist on stories about love, loss, sex and life’s harsh realities told
alongside a combination of gritty and sweet rhymes that are boosted by a deep,
rhythmic heartbeat and sophisticated instrumentals. Through carefully-produced
recordings and mesmerizing, high-energy live shows, she pulls audiences into
her inner world and pays tribute to the hip-hop trailblazers who have influenced
her, including Missy Elliot, Outkast, 2Pac, Nas and Remy Ma. Constance’s latest
EP, Temerarious chronicles her transformation from a young lady into a woman
through bold and layered tunes that prove the female perspective is an essential,
powerful voice in the hip-hop universe.
Born Natasha Johnson, Constance grew up on Chicago’s South Side and
gravitated towards rapping as a way to express herself and create peace inside
her day-to- day challenges. Once she discovered hip-hop and rap, the explosive
energy and inventive beats inspired her to write her own words and music.
Sparked by her own experiences and the challenges her surroundings and
complex emotions, Constance started writing poetry.
Determined to embark on a new path, she came up with the name Constance as
a tribute to her relentless drive to come up with hot lyrics and innovative musical
concepts.
