E. Brown

A NATIVE OF NY WITH ROOTS THAT TRACE BACK TO JAMAICA, I CONSIDER MYSELF A STUDENT OF MUSIC WHO PLANS TO LEAVE MORE THAN A MARK IN THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY. I AM A PRODUCER/ ENGINEER/ COMPOSER/ WRITER/ POET/ ENTREPRENEUR/ PHILANTHROPIST/ ANYTHING I PUT MIND TO. THIS IS NOT A STATEMENT OF COCKINESS BUT OF CONFIDENCE. MY HEART IS EMBEDDED INTO MUSIC. IT IS WHAT I LIVE, BREATH, AND LOTHE!!! TO SPARE THE LONG AND DRAGGED OUT BIO THEME, I HAVE BEEN COMPOSING INSTRUMENTALS SERIOUSLY FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS, BUT I HAVE BEEN AROUND THEORY SINCE 10 YEARS OF AGE. I PLAY 3 INSTRUMENTS (SELF TAUGHT) AND I AM IN THE CURRENT PROCESS OF LEARNING TO PLAY THE BASS, VIOLIN, AND GUITAR. ON MY EVERYDAY TO DAY, YOU CAN FIND ME LISTENING TO ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING!!!!!! THIS IS WHAT SPARKS MY CREATIVITY. MY CHOICE OF MUSIC IS SPORADIC AS WELL AS ECLECTIC. FOR EXAMPLE, ILL FIND MY SELF LISTENING TO BJORK AND A COUPLE MINUTES LATER ILL BE LISTENING TO HELL RELL OR JAY. SOME DAYS I GO ON BINGS!!!! ILL LISTEN TO NOTHING BUT LYRICISTS LIKE NAS, CANIBUS, AND OR BLU & EXILE FOR DAYS OR WEEKS!!!! THEN, ILL GO OLD SCHOOL AND LISTEN TO SOME OTTIS OR STEVIE THEN GO BACK TO MY NATIVE ROOTS AND POP IN BOB (MARLEY), PETER TOSH, AND BERES. RARELY DO I FIND MYSELF LISTENING TO THE RADIO!!! I RATHER LISTEN TO PEOPLE LIKE JOHN MAYER WHEN THE WEATHERS GOOD AND GROUPS LIKE GNARLS BARKLEY WHEN I FEEL LIKE BUGGING OUT ( ALL THE TIME). BUT, I DO LISTEN TO EVERYTHING. I THOUGHT IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE, BUT APPARENTLY NOT!!! M.I.A. HAD ME "PAPER PLANING", DANITY KANE HAD ME LOOKING FOR A " BAD GIRL", AND LUPE REMINDED ME TO NEVER "DUMB IT DOWN", EVEN-THOUGH IM "ADDICTED" LIKE RYAN LESLIE.
