About Me

ECKS, THE NUMBER 2 RATED DC RAP ARTIST
ON THE MYSPACE MAJOR CHARTS,
AND THAT'S WITHOUT A MAJOR DEAL,
NEW REGIME WE MAJOR WITHOUT THE MAJORS
Ecks is a solo MC, who early in his career was proclaimed by Hiphop legends such as KRS-One to be "The Future of Hiphop". The child of both 1960s revolutionaries and the rugged streets of Washington DC, Ecks brings a unique combination a hard hitting street poetry, and raw lyrics to the table. Armed with a strong track record, an innovative production style and vivid reflections of the streets, Ecks is poised to become a name that the rap industry does not soon forget.
Ecks made his debut at the age of 16, under the moniker of Professor Ecks, opening for such notable acts as The Roots, Fugazi and Good Charlotte. His talent was soon discovered by Roots member Scratch, who introduced Ecks to KRS One. Ecks would go on to make his solo debut on KRS-Ones Spiritual Minded album, fully equipped with jaw-dropping word play, which The Source noted as hard hitting and no-frills.
Following his debut, Ecks went on to further establish himself as a force in the mixtape scene. He quickly became a staple on the mixtapes of DJ Dow Jones, Mick Boogie, the Streetsweepers and DJ 730, setting the mixtape scene ablaze. Ecks began to tour widely off of his new found acclaim performing with Talib Kweli and the Campus Invasion tour, as well as opening for 50 Cent, Ashanti and Dead Prez.
Ecks rising talent has began to catch many an ear in the industry and including mixtape Moguls Kay Slay, Big Mike and DJ Lt. Dan. Both have tabbed Ecks as the next big thing in hiphop music, and are both prepping forth coming collaborative efforts with the street poet, including new studio material with Royce da 59", Scram Jones and D-Block.
Ecks has become a hot name in the industry with talk ranging from courtships by high powered labels to comparison to legendary rappers to whispers of beef and rivalry. However the truth about Ecks still shines through loud and clear in his music : ECKS IS THE FUTURE!
