Details:
The hard penetrating, self-reflective vocals of this MC poignantly illustrate that true school hip hop is alive and well. Born in the Midwest, raised in Maryland, and schooled in the business in NYC, E Reece is unlike any artist you have ever heard or seen. This talented and hard-working lyricist, songwriter, poet, and musician keeps your attention at every turn and will make you challenge yourself. His music speaks of love, life, and staying true to yourself.

His love of music began when he began to study jazz saxophone at age 12. His early influences include Michael Jackson, Prince, Charlie Parker, Gerry Mulligan, and later A Tribe Called Quest, KRS-1, EPMD and other east coast artists. He began to develop his own style in high school, when he started freestyling with his boys. Later he would hone his skills at open mic nights and any cipher he could get in, most notably with the legendary KRS-1 and BETâs ex-Rap City host Tigger at the 930 Club in DC in 1999. A love for hip hop has developed into a promising career, with growing success on the underground level from MD to NYC to LA, where he currently resides.

E Reece brings you "Organic Hip Hop" to feed your mind, body and souls with no additives or preservatives. E has worked with fellow LA underground MCs Jamal, Crag Malkovich (Gershwin BLX), Abnormal (Handroids), Universal, Two B, and Fat Hed, Michigan transplants NowOn and Buff1, Arizona up and comer Ill Al, alternative singer Rosey; producers Nocturnal Ron, Leggo (Dakah), TaRaach (Detroit), Cordovan and DJ Soups; soul singer extraordinaire Sy Smith and male R&B singers & LA natives Hilsyde & Mateo, to name a few.

Heâs blazed the stage several times at The Temple Bar in Santa Monica, CA and has become an extended family member at the legendary "Root Downâ LAâs #1 hip hop weekly. Heâs performed at numerous clubs and schools across the globe and the country, opening for and playing alongside such artists as Brand Nubian, Black Sheep, Rich Medina, Jneiro Jarel, LA Symphony and others. Heâs also performed in London on Nicci Cheeksâ 97.9FM and on GaiaLive.com, in LA on "Grab Tha Mic" on MusicPlusTV.com and on KPFK 90.7FM. Heâs featured on Lyricist Loungeâs latest mixtape entitled âThe Legendary Lyricist Lounge International Mixtape Series Vol. 1.â You can check out some of the music from his other releases, âFarEye Visionâ [EP, 2004, E Reece Music (ASCAP)] and âNext Upâ [EP, 2006, E Reece Music (ASCAP)] online at cdbaby.com/all/ereece, with combined sales of over 3,000 units without distribution.

So check out this multi-talented brother and his live band "Core Elements" (a revolving door of dope musicians from LA and beyond on guitar, bass, drums, keys and featuring DJ Soups), who mix new school hip hop, east coast wisdom, and west coast love of life. His music transcends all cultures, and with a love for rhyming thatâs deeply rooted in the essence of the genre, itâs going to be hard to stop his star from rising. â Once theyâve heard my music or seen my live show, I want people to believe in the power of positive music and to know that real hip hop isnât dead.â He provides a breath of fresh air in a smog-infested industry. Heâs E Reece and heâs not for the fake. All sucka MCâs beware!
