Black Stax is the avant-garde of Seattle hip-hop whose forthcoming debut album Talking
Buildings is an eclectic, urban mix. Comprised of MCs Silas Blak and Jace ECAj and vocalist
Felicia Loud, Black Stax makes creative, challenging and emotional music with an injection of
hip hop and 70s-era soul.

A collaboration that works, Black Stax successfully blends musical genres and attracts a varied
and supportive following.

Deft Magazine recently noted that, "Oftentimes artists from Seattle are overlooked...But Black
Stax stands out, blending neo-soul, blues, and hip hop to create a sound very much their own,
exposing the world to the sounds of Seattle’s underground with their debut album."
