About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.41/2 of The Boston Based I.W. Rhyme Krew. Essex, (as he's known on the mic) has managed to set himself apart from other rapper's and producers by staying true to his artistic self. Never one to turn down a mic, Essex has a style of rap that captures it's audience and Brings them on a lyrical journey. "I Just want to bring it back to the roots of hip-hop, Beats and Rhymes that make you think and have fun" the 25 year old Dorchester bred Emcee says.Essex first got his street buzz with the track "The Rap Experience" which displays his ability to deliver precise thought provoking metaphors and similies, As well as his clever word play. He then followed that by dropping the track "Imagination" In which Essex trades verses with the pysical embodiment of his alter ego in the middle of a rain storm.In the 00's Essex and Best freind/Ryhme partner Strobe hit the streets with a slew of underground bangers, such as "I know", "We only make hits", "The get Down", and "Think about that".Recently Essex has created DORCHESTER UNIVERCITY. Which is a learning enviroment where all the elements of hip-hop can be found studied and perfected.In this New era circa 2000 and beyond.Essex, Strobe and Sane have come together to form I.W. Records, which will distribute all I.W. and I.W. related merchandise in the New England area as well as abroad and of course on the internet.
