For ethemadassassin, hustling on drug-infested streets to make a living isnt just fodder for a new song, its everyday life. And when this lyricist writes about his life in Henderson, N.C and his experiences growing up, his rhymes are blunt, candid, and real. "I won't tell any lies to make myself sound hard or sound better than the next nigga," E said in an interview. "I don't try to sugar coat. I don't exaggerate." E, a prominent rapper in Greensboro, N.C., has been fascinated with hip hop since he was 12 years old. Some of hip hops greatest artists like Rakim and KRS 1 influenced the young E. In result, he created his own style and become a voice of wisdom in the local music industry. On his first album "proverbs", E set himself apart from the mainstream braggadocios and gangsta wannabes, becoming the essence of what hip hop was missing: the truth. His lyrics are often confused for being "gangsta," but E says he's just spitting the truth about his life and the realities of the streets. "We're all going through it," E said. "I just paint everybody's story. I try to make it sound almost like a textbook." His straightforward lyrics and raw appeal landed him a spot on Jump Mobile's promotional compilation album entitled, "Hometown Heroes". Only a handful of artists in the Greensboro market made the cut. Today, E is celebrating the completion of his anticipated sophomore release, "tomorrow never comes". The album is sure to boast the insightful, down-to-earth lyrics "proverbs" provided, but with more clarity. The truth will still be told. ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ..............................be sure to go to www.nutracs.com and vote for "my nature" by ethemadassassin...... also, be sure to check out the jump mobile compilation cd "hometown heroes" featuring "movement" by ethemadassassin (ft. bashir)........................................current album "proverbs" available online at cdbaby.com/ethemadassassin and singles available at mp3.com..................................new album titled "tomorrow never comes" coming soon.....the first single is "the life i know"
