Mr. E's Biography

Mr. E is a 19 year old emcee born in Mesa Arizona. After living his first 9 years in outskirts of Phoenix, he moved to a small logging town consisting of just 10,000 people, in Coos Bay, Oregon. At the age of 15, he was just discovering rap. While listening to Bone Thugs an Harmony one day in his room, having no current direction for a career, he was suddenly inspired, and decided to write a rhyme. He had never felt such a rush before. A surge of adrenaline and energy flowed through him. When finished, he immediately called up a friend and spit his verse. The friend loved it. This started Mr. E’s journey towards pure limitless love for rhyme, and hip-hop.

Continuing to write rhymes, he began actually listening, and analyzing, the lyrics of major rap stars, realizing that most, if not all, would not be very difficult to duplicate. Seeing this as a long shot, questionable opportunity at a career, he began writing more. Soon checking the internet for hip hop lyric sites to further evaluate top rappers rhymes, he came across ‘freestyle rap’ forums. These message boards not only enabled him to post his own rhymes for the world to see, but to read and study other underground lyricists rhymes. Having been fond of words and reading since before elementary school, he was at home in a world where words rule, and inspired art conquers.

Taking place in several lyrical rhyme battles, he won many, and lost few. Moving from forum to forum, and site to site, he read thousands upon thousands of rhymes, from thousands and thousands of fellow emcee’s. Only a short time ago he was introduced to a whole new world of underground emcee’s on Rapmusic.com, who’s songs and lyricism made him raise his own standards of rhyme. Always taking each verse he read, heard, and wrote, as a learning experience, he began putting a voice behind the lyrics. With his own website set up, and his first audio recorded recently, he has began his long journey to raise the bar of poetic expression in mainstream hip-hop.
