I Figured Out How To Smile Again. It's Amazing.

About Me

what's up this is ecid MC/Producer & frontman of the Minneapolis indie-hiphop label "Fill in the Breaks". I was gonna write one of those stupid 3rd person bio's for this, but I think thats bullshit especially when I personally update this page...been rapping & writing songs for a good 10 years now. been making "beats" for about 3 or 4 yrs which is when I'd say I started to get "good" atleast from my view. I'm not some hiphop snob. nor am I one of those over the top pretentious shit head's that hates rap, but yet raps...I just write things down that I feel are important & turn those things into songs that people can hopefully get something out of....fill in the breaks is the label that hates me. ecid means whatever you want it to. & if I keep talking about myself like this I might jump out of a window.

In 2006 I released "Biograffiti" then "Saturday Morning Soundtrack" & did a bunch of cool things. In 2007 I released "Economy Size goDD Costume", got married, went broke, ate alot of bad things, traveled alot, spread the word, & did a bunch more cool things. In 2008 I am currently baby sitting rappers, recording 6 different projects, & planning a bunch of things much cooler than any other thing I've ever thinged.

ECID "ECONOMY SIZE goDD COSTUME"
ESGC is what happens when you take Slim Shady era Eminem, The Talking Heads, Ice Cube & Nirvana, smash them together, roll them in mud, blow them up with dynamite & attempt to piece them back together. Packed with "did he just..?" quotables & menacing beats that'll leave your original preconceptions about hiphop still intact, but briefly beat up & sub-sided. Originality breaths through the blood of Ecid's blue collar rap songs thicker than a shot of Milk & Gasoline.
