I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
SLEEP-E-J (PRONOUNCED SLEEPY J)
Sleep-E-J (Pronounced Sleepy J) is solo rap artist that hales from St. Louis, Mo. Best known for high energy on the stage presence, doing a concert in any venue that is willing to have him perform and for his appearing of Southern Smoke College tour CD (and many more mixtapes). The Creepy Crawl in St. Louis, Mo books Sleep-E-J more than any other venue and says “He does better than most acts that come in to the Creepy Crawl and always brings a crowd with him.”
Sleep-E-J is working on a new Mixtape called “Relentless” that he is teaming up with friend and label mate Frost Money. The whole point of the Mixtape is to address all the hatters that have been surfacing through out the years. The Mixtape is set to release on New Years. Sleep-E-J is working on another Solo Mixtape called “J DAY the 3 day Theory” set to release in Feb. He is also putting the finishing touches for his debut CD “Doubted By Many Hated By More.” that is set to release late Jan/ early Feb. He will also be making appearances on Frost Money’s debut Album “Its About Damn Time” that is set to release in the spring of 2009. Currently looking into online radio stations and college radio to spin his music.
Sleep-E-J is heavily influenced by west coast and southern rap. He started rapping when was 10. He recruited a friend school to form a group that didn’t work out. Then formed a group with his older cousin Called “Vicious Mexican Playas.” They recorded one freestyle mixtape (R&J Present the Connections) and began working on a CD but it fell apart when they couldn’t agree on the direction of the group. Since then Sleep-E-J has been a solo act. He joined up with some neighborhood friends and began doing several Mixtapes (“Ground Zero Freestyle” “VMP Da Take Over”) to develop a buzz. He also acted as a hype man for the neighborhood group that was Called ”HittSquad” that later fell apart due to creative differences. Sleep-E-J did continue playing the hype man for “DNell” (who was the front man of “HittSquad” ) In 2007 Sleep-E-J finally stepped out of the shadow that DNell was casting over him. Sleep-E-J Appeared on several other mixtapes in 2007 (VMP “Censor This” Lil X AKA Kane “Tha High Life” “Guddah’s My Block” Frost Money’s “Where’s My Money”). In 2008 Sleep-E-J took the stage as a solo act for the 1st. He recruited 2 friends to be his hype men (Frost Money and Guddah) to help him rock the stage. Later he cut the act down to only 1 hype man to cut down the confusion on the 3 of them being a group. Sleep-E-J performs Songs from his mixtapes and a few singles off his upcoming debut CD. Sleep-E-J has Released 2 solo mixtapes “The Great Awakening” (released in 2007) and “The New Dream.” (Released in 2008). He has made appearances on few independent releases such as; Psyco V’s “Releasing the Demons” V.M.P. “The Rise to Power Compilation” and DJ Smallz Southern Smoke “College Tour CD.” The Bulk of Sleep-E-J’s fan base is in the South but its is growing to a wider base slowly the more they hear and see him. He Has performed in St. Louis, Mo Springfield, IL, Dallas, TX, Antonio, TX, Houston, TX and several other cities.
Sleep-E-J’s future is very bright and promising with his Myspace page friends growing (currently at 6700plus friends) and his play count being 200 plus plays daily. Sleep-E-J definitely has a hustlers work ethic. He does all his online promotions, sells his own merchandise (Hoodies, t-shirts, sweat pants and much more), is beginning to make beats and shooting music videos. Sleep-E-J is working hard so that when his career takes off he wont be a one hit wonder. He is trying to earn the respect from the hip hop world and the corporate world through all of his side hustles/views and ideas. He is priming himself to take on the world by any means necessary. Stay tuned to see what is in his future!
