1. Stella Rhymes (Australia)

Born and bred in Sydney, Stella Rhymes is a triple threat – singing, rapping and writing to the beat of her hometown. Growing up, she’s taken the stage in front of crowds large and small with fierce interpretations of big hip hop/soul hits. Passionate about pin-up culture but is certainly no 1950’s housewife – this songstress scribes for the modern woman or her “LOL’s/Ladies on Liquor” as she affectionately calls them. Recently releasing her debut single “Lullaby” on iTunes and all major online distributors, Stella Rhymes explains “it’s a song I wrote as a reminder to let go and put to bed our first world problems, remember who we really are and reconnect with each other and our planet”. Choosing to launch her single and music video by hosting a successful UV Glow Party to coincide with Earth Hour, the world’s largest mass participation event this year raising awareness for the grim future of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, proves that this unsigned artist has her finger on the pulse and heart firmly set on a large global audience. These days you’ll find Rhymes in The Intellectunes studio recording original cocktails of hip hop mixed with dance-pop as she gets ready to serve you a taste!
