Educated Rapper of UTFO

About Me

'''Educated Rapper''' was a [rapper] in the [Hip hop music|hip-hop] group [UTFO], most famous for their song ''[Roxanne, Roxanne]''. '''Educated Rapper''' originally matriculated from City College before UTFO signed their first record deal.

True to his name, Educated Rapper cultivated an educated, erudite image, humorously contrasting with that of his cohorts. He was born in Hammersmith, a suburb of London, England and moved to Brooklyn with his family at the age of 16.

When UTFO stopped performing as a full four man unit in 1992, EMD kept his own hip-hop flame alive by continuing to create imaginative and memorable rap lyrics, but with a different goal: dedicating his talents to providing a positive role model to young students. In order to encourage the benefits of education, he vowed to be "specific and prolific" in his goal to reach students worldwide.

True to his name and the image he portrayed (wearing his University sweater and tie), he is a straight A student beyond a 4.0 average at the College of New Rochelle completing a Baccalaureate Degree in Liberal Arts with a concentration in Communications and an eye the Valedictorian position Magna Cum Laude.


A hip-hop celebrity with national and global sales who founded the Pioneer hip-hop group UTFO. Slated to graduate from The College of New Rochelle in 2008 with an eye on the Valedictorian position Magna Cum Laude. As a hip-hop professor kept a finger on the evolutionary pulse by analyzing and evaluating, how young students could be reached through hip-hop lyrics served over heat rock tracks. Survived the pool of industry sharks, a cold latch-key childhood existence, 911 bombings (missed a final destination by 13 minutes) and an environment that doesn’t necessarily encourage scholarly goals. Made it cool to be intelligent, which is a fact thousands of fans internationally and nationally would attest to. Officially recruited in 2008 as one of the “Change Agents “enlisted for the “Million Project”, which began in New York City schools this year. Supported by solid Ivy League mentorship and corporate executive coaching this living monument has partnered with a distinguished Harvard University team and the NYC’s Chancellor to reprogram the educational system as we once knew it. This British American Leader understands that it is necessary to mold powerful dimensions of a student’s mind, so that he can become man a thinker and a doer. As of May 1st 2008 he became an active a Fruitarian and Vegetarian.
