E-Double A.P.M.C. was born Eshod Shomari Howard on Febuary 5, 1985 in Brooklyn, New York. E-Double’s love for music manifested itself in elementary school, where he was an active member of the school’s chorus and ensemble band. Throughout his years in school, E-Double’s love for music diverted from more interest in jazz and R&B, to an enormous and still growing love for Hip-Hop. This love began when his older brother introduced him to the Notorious B.I.G.’s Ready To Die album. As an adolescent, E-Double gained his skills rhyming with his older brother and cousin as they played with action figures and re-enacted the everyday urban life they lived and seen in thier Brooklyn hometown. The confidence to start a career in Hip-Hop music came from the approval of family members and close friends, when E-Double spat in numerous and spontaneous freestyles. E-Double tweeked his rhyming skills all throughout high school in various parks around his neighborhood, his father’s neighborhoodon East Gun Hill Road in the Bronx, or wherever a cypher commenced. However, to E-Double, this ability to rap was still just a hobby to him. E-Double began to get serious and write his rhymes down at the age of 18, with the intentions of seeing what different people from various walks of life thought of his music, not just people he knew and grew up with. E-Double’s decision to pursue a career in rap was solidified when he began to test his rhymes in 2006, in various open mics around the New York area and in Raleigh, North Carolina. Within these open mics, E-Double witnessed the positive response to his words, and the approval of his peers and fellow Hip-Hop lovers. From that confidence, E-Double A.P.M.C. the star was born.

Do you remember the Good ol' days of "real" and "genuine" hip hop music? I recall a time like artists/Emcee's such as; Eric b and Rakim, Krs-one, Public Enemy, Doug E.Fresh, Salt n Pepa as well as Slick Rick that had- "something to talk about". When the line dropped; "My mic sounds nice/check one/ my mic sounds nice/ check two/ my mic sounds nice/ check 3 / Are/ U/Ready?!/. I believe that's when Hip Hop was at it's "best" and it was "authentic". When I fell in love with Hip Hop was when I heard Doug E. fresh and Slick Rick's record, "The show". My mom told me when I was at the age of 4 , I jumped out of my sleep and made a pose- then, I started "dancing". I really "miss those days".Growing up in the 80's was cool, and it was about "enjoying life", having a "good time" and "staying out of trouble". Alot of Emcee's back then covered everything, and did not just talk about "sex" and how much "money they had". It wasn't about "killing each other", over money, and "personal beef", either. Now at days, you would never hear an emcee talk about ,"do the right thing", or "stay in school" in their raps. It' s about the "mighty dollar". Well, I have got to tell you about a "new" and "upcoming artist". He is definetely "cut from a different cloth". This artist goes by the name of ,"E-double A.P.M.C."(All purpose Emcee). I have not heard anyone who sounds like him. "His lyrics make you think", as a "concious rapper". He covers "all aspects", of the challenges as a young black man in "society" and the things that matter to him and how he "envisions the world", in his mind.He is not only an artist, but he is "growing" to make the transition to be"great as a father" and an "Emcee". It is," not an easy job", on both sides of the spectrum. When he is"not in school" or "working at one of two jobs",he "devotes his time in the studio",as well as making time for his son as well. He is a "true artist", in the making. He has "not" let any obstacle stop him. He is 25yrs old, ready to graduate college and ready to accomplish his goals "by any means", as he quotes , "Malcolm X". He was raised in the section of Clinton hills-Washington ave area of brooklyn. His mother Vanessa Howard was not only a poet, but a mother who has raised two boys and made it through college. He knows that being a parent isn't easy and makes time to see his son and takes care of all his needs "financially", "mentally" and "emotionally". He is nowhere near close to "fabrication" or "diluting", when it comes to the essence of real "Hip Hop". He defines the term- "Original". As a "supporter" and the "mother of his son", I guarantee you that this young artist/Emcee is about making "postive progression" and "bringing back that good 'ol feeling", we felt back then of real hip hop be brought "back to life", with a twist of his own style he will bring to the "Hip Hop game". He has lyrics filled with an extensive and creative plethora of vocabulary, with catchy choruses and metaphors that will, "capture your attention". I assure you that he is, "worth your time" if you are "willing to listen", to the message he wants to deliver. Feel free to check him out on; Myspace, twitter, facebook and BBM. His name is All Purpose M.C. on blogspot.com. To all of my readers, thank you for taking time out of your day to read my blog and Godbless you all, I hope you were "inspired".
