MINNEAPOLIS — Releasing an album at the height of the COVID-19 quarantine was obviously not what Sa-Roc had in mind when she signed on with Rhymesayers Entertainment.
Still, the reputable East Coast rapper — only the second female artist to record for Minneapolis' enduring indie-rap label in its 27-year history — now sees the circumstances behind her 2020 record, "The Sharecropper's Daughter," as serendipitous. Especially after what went down in her record label's hometown in the interim.
"The killing of George Floyd and the protest and unrest that followed, a lot of that was already reflected on this album," Sa-Roc said.
