Brooklyn's Eagle Nebula brings to the world her debut album "Cosmic Headphones, a musical collection of high creative tastes produced by Georgia Anne Muldrow and executive produced by Dudley Perkins (of Stones Throw fame). Her throwback delivery and playful lyrics immediately brought back memories of a time when true hip hop was king. Witty and intelligent, Eagle playfully rhymes about living with optimism in "Daily Debut" but can switch gears to the personally contemplative "What I Like" without skipping a beat. Her message is positive and inspirational without coming off as tacky or preachy. "Cosmic Headphones" is a fresh breath of air in a rap game that is currently polluted with ringtone singles and recycled cliches as an excuse for lyrical content. Do yourself a favor and see what the new wave of hip hop sounds like. - Theme Magazine, May 2008
Bringing the fun back into hip hop, Eagle Nebula challenges the scene to reminisce on days when freestyle sessions were like medicine and the street was a breeding ground for the modern-day renaissance. On her latest EP, "Cosmic Headphones", she begs you to enter her mind and spirit on a journey from Inglewood, Calf. to Brooklyn, NY as she morphs into a mic goddess, passion on her tongue. Using rhyme styles and voice play that has her compared stylistically to mighty KRS-One, this EP serves as an introduction to Eagle's many layers. Cosmic Headphones will be released on the ePistrophik Peach Sound label (founded by soul-hip-hop veterans Georgia Anne Muldrow and Dudley Perkins). - Trace Magazine, May 2008

Bio
Eagle Nebula is the voice hip-hop has been waiting for!
An urban sage wise beyond her years, the emcee/poet/songwriter bursts out of the hip hop box with her bright brand of optimism. Blending the perfect balance of wit and wisdom, Nebula creates new life atop a musical landscape that appears desolate.
A true believer in the power of music to heal and enlighten, she sites her influences as: De La Soul, Guru, Peter Tosh, Fela Kuti, Oumou Sangare and Sun Ra. As with these artists, Nebula possesses the skill and power to speak truth and positivity in times of crises. Equally humorous and intelligent, she channels the golden age of hip-hop with playful lyrics and an electric delivery. Though she is often compared stylistically to the mighty KRS-1 and MC Lyte, she is boldly unique, never bending to trends, but instead clearing a new path through unmarked musical territory.
Her specific genre of music is hip-hop with an old school bop and a funk edge. The former student of Sonia Sanchez blends poetry and hip-hop in a way never done before. The rap game has never seen anything like her before and might decide to dance again after being touched by her light.
Lately, the Inglewood, California native has been gracing East Coast stages, freestlying with the likes of underground trailblazers Baba Israel, Yako 440 and Core Rhythm. Most recently, she has paired up with the supremely talented, fellow West Coaster, Georgia Anne Muldrow to create a supernatural hip-hop joyride.
Hip Hop fans should brace themselves and get ready to experience the magic that is Eagle Nebula.
Listen closely; she might make you love life and music more than you ever have before.
